Abstract
A new imaging system, OxyMap®, has been developed to noninvasively obtain two dimensional maps of the distribution of oxygen concentration in living tissue by imaging the decay of the phosphorescent probes, such as Pd-meso-tetra (4-carboxyphenyl) porphine, in the blood. The phosphorescence of these probes is quenched by oxygen according to the relationship:
