Tracking of blood flow within living tissue, such as in laboratory animals, is often done using a technique called laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI). The equipment used to do this technique tends to be high-end and expensive, so a team of biomedical engineers at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a laboratory-grade LSCI system made from off-the-shelf components that costs less than $100 to build.
