| Abstract | Microultrasound imaging is a flexible high-resolution real-time in vivo imaging modality based on the transmission and the reception of ultrasound waves. Because of its high temporal (>250 Hz) and spatial (30-150 µm) resolutions and the noninvasive nature of ultrasound, microultrasound is used extensively in preclinical research to monitor functional and dynamic phenotypic changes in small animal models. Its ability to perform in vivo longitudinal monitoring of development, pathology, and therapeutic effectiveness is particularly advantageous. This article reviews the technology and the applications of high-frequency microultrasound for the study of mouse eye development from embryonic day E11.5 to postnatal day P16. Procedures for animal handling and scanning are given, and applications are described in the context of ocular development and disease. Quantitative analysis of the growth kinetics of the lens and the orbit is discussed. In addition, mouse models of retinoblastoma and glaucoma are followed as a function of disease progression to reveal their associated morphological and functional traits. Microultrasound is performed with high-frequency imaging equipment (from VisualSonics) operating at center frequencies between 15 and 50 MHz. These instruments provide both anatomical imaging as well as functional and molecular analyses of the living mouse. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
