Abstract
A system for generating and detecting transient vapor nanobubbles in a fluid from a patient can include a micro-fluidic device to receive a flow of the fluid from the patient, a laser pulse source to provide a laser pulse to the flow of the fluid from a first side of the micro-fluidic device, a probe light source to provide a probe light to the flow from the first side of the micro-fluidic device, and a photodetector located at a second side of the micro-fluidic device opposite the first side. The photodetector can detect scattered, reflected, and/or deflected probe light and output a nanobubble signal including characteristics of optical scattering, reflecting, and/or deflecting by the transient vapor nanobubble.
