Mechanisms of Nitric Oxide (NO) inside a human body were vastly reported to be involved in controlling vascular functions, regulating immune response and modulating of neuronal functions . To achieve a method for NO detection in medical research related with circulatory system or behaviors , we have developed a compact system with a tiny implantable image sensor for detection fluorescence of NO.
