01/01/2014 - "To overcome these limitations, using a modified three-step emulsion process, we have developed a first-of-its-kind India ink incorporated optically-triggerable phase-transition perfluorocarbon nanodroplets (INDs) that can provide not only three types of contrast mechanisms-conventional/thermoelastic photoacoustic, phase-transition/nonlinear photoacoustic, and ultrasound imaging contrasts, but also a new avenue for photoacoustic effect mediated tumor therapy. "
01/01/2014 - "India ink incorporated multifunctional phase-transition nanodroplets for photoacoustic/ultrasound dual-modality imaging and photoacoustic effect based tumor therapy."
01/01/2014 - "Our laboratory has established the feasibility of clinical EPR oximetry in cancer patients using India ink, the only material presently approved for clinical use. "
12/01/2012 - "We added India ink as a mapping agent to determine whether this would allow us to pathologically identify sentinel parametrial nodes and to test our hypothesis that the parametrial nodes are the true SLNs in women with cervical cancer. "
12/01/2012 - "India ink implantation confirmed the lymphatic connection between the primary tumor of the kidney and PTNs. "

07/01/2003 - "Histologically, dilation and hypertrophy of subpapillary and subdermal vessels were evident in groups 2, 3, and 4; on the other hand, degranulation of mast cells in the vicinity of occluded vessels at the 1st hour of laser delay and a striking mast cell proliferation and degranulation in association with newly formed vessels (angiogenesis) at the 14th day of laser delay were prominent in group 5. India ink injections revealed longitudinally arranged large-caliber vessels and cross-filling between the vessels of adjacent territories in groups, 2, 3, and 4, but only small-caliber vessels in group 5. Compared with the acute flaps, both surgical and laser delay significantly increased the mean flap perfusion to the maximal levels after a 14-day delay period, and all delay procedures improved flap survival; the most significant increase in surviving area was observed in group 3, whereas the less significant increase in surviving area was in group 5. This study demonstrates that laser delay is as effective as surgical delay and that laser delay by lasering lateral borders leads to dilation and longitudinal rearrangement of the existing vessels rather than angiogenesis, whereas laser delay by lasering the entire surface results in delay effect by inducing angiogenesis due to activation and degranulation of the mast cells."
04/01/1980 - "In additional experiments, mice subjected to adenectomy only on one side and injected in that hind footpad with phytohemagglutinin or India ink demonstrated hypertrophy or deposition of carbon particles in the more distant node only on the side of the injection. "

10/01/2008 - "He was found to have cryptococcal meningitis using India ink preparation of cerebrospinal fluid. "
07/01/2008 - "In patients with Cryptococcal meningitis both methods, ie, an India ink preparation and Gram staining gave similar results. "
12/01/2000 - "Should an India ink test be used to detect cryptococcal meningitis in a low-risk population--primarily in a general acute care setting--or are better stat tests available?"
03/15/1999 - "In all, microscopic examination of centrifuged and stained CSF sediment proved more sensitive for rapid diagnosis of cryptococcal meningitis than the India ink method, and in two of our patients cryptococci were seen in centrifuged CSF sediment despite negative CRAG and India ink tests."
03/01/1998 - "Wet India ink mounts of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are useful in the laboratory diagnosis of cryptococcal meningitis. "

05/01/2004 - "CSF examination with India ink helped to the diagnosis of cryptococcosis in all cases. "
01/01/2009 - "This case study suggests that primary cutaneous cryptococcosis can be diagnosed provisionally by a simple Gram stained smear and India ink examination in order to avoid occurrence of disseminated cryptococcosis, including meningial involvement, which may have a fatal outcome."
01/01/2008 - "A subsequent diagnosis of disseminated cryptococcosis was made on India ink staining of cerebrospinal fluid. "
01/01/1981 - "The presence of cryptococcuria and a subsequent positive CSF India ink stain led to the initial diagnosis of disseminated cryptococcosis. "
03/01/2014 - "A lumbar puncture was performed and India ink preparation was positive for cryptococcosis, cerebrospinal fluid culture yielded Cryptococcus neoformans and serum cryptococcal antigen titer was 1:128. "

10/01/2006 - "We aimed to report on the cosmetic efficacy of corneal tattooing using India ink for resolving corneal opacities resulting from amniotic membrane grafting carried out to promote corneal wound healing in stromal corneal ulcers. "
