Automatic full field analysis of perfusion images gained by scanning laser Doppler flowmetry.
BACKGROUND Scanning laser Doppler flowmetry (SLDF) enables the measurement of the laser Doppler frequency shift in retinal tissue. This process allows the quantification of retinal and optic nerve head perfusion in an area of 2.7 mm x 0.7 mm within 2 seconds and with a spatial resolution of 10 microns x 10 microns. Owing to the local heterogeneity of the retinal microcirculation itself and to h...
متن کاملEvaluation of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by Laser Doppler Flowmetry
Background:Autonomic disturbance can leads to blood flow changes that can be studied by various methods. Objective: To assess the blood flow changes in patients with severe carpal tunnel syndrome by laser Doppler flowmetry Methods:Ten patients with severe unilateral carpal tunnel syndrome confirmed by electrodiagnostic examination enrolled in this study. Patients comprised one man and nine wom...
متن کاملQuantitative Laser Doppler Flowmetry
vii-Abstract Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) is virtually the only non-invasive technique, except for other laser speckle based techniques, that enables estimation of the microcirculatory blood flow. The technique was introduced into the field of biomedical engineering in the 1970s, and a rapid evolvement followed during the 1980s with fiber based systems and improved signal analysis. The first i...
متن کاملLaser Doppler Flowmetry Time-frequency Analysis by the S-transform
The laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) technique is a non invasive method that measures the microvascular blood cell perfusion through tissue. It uses the principle of Doppler shifts. LDF signals are non stationary. As other physiological signals, the LDF ones need an appropriate method to be analyzed and the extraction of the microvascular activities dynamic evolution is not an easy task. For that ...
متن کاملPerfusion of the femoral head during surgical dislocation of the hip. Monitoring by laser Doppler flowmetry.
We used laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) with a high energy (20 mW) laser to measure perfusion of the femoral head intraoperatively in 32 hips. The surgical procedure was joint debridement requiring dislocation or subluxation of the hip. The laser probe was placed within the anterosuperior quadrant of the femoral head. Blood flow was monitored in specific positions of the hip before and after disl...
