Recent studies on drug screening and disease progression have shown that 3D cell culture systems can better represent the in vivo conditions in comparison with 2D monolayer cultures. Studying mechanobiology in 3D cell culture systems also recapitulates cell behaviors in response to various types of mechanical stimuli. An effective tool for measuring the spatiotemporal changes in elastic properties of such 3D cell culture systems without invasively contacting the samples has not been readily available but is undoubtedly needed. We have developed novel optical and acoustic shear wave imaging methods and devices for non-invasive quantification of the matrix stiffness in 3D culture conditions. Such methods require both high sensitivity and adequate spatial resolution. In particular, the complementary physical properties of light and sound are exploited and innovative devices are developed, despite the fact that these two distinctly different physical mechanisms are often separately applied in biomedical problems. Several techniques were developed, and their applications were demonstrated. In addition, we will present a simple setup for shear wave elasticity imaging using only one single element transducer with machine learning based image reconstruction. The applications of the proposed techniques in in vitro research for radiation therapy will also be presented.
