this article reviews clinically relevant data regarding traumatic maculopathy (tm), frequently observed in clinical practice, especially due to sport or traffic accident injuries. it is characterized by transient gray-whitish retinal coloration and reduction of visual acuity (va) with closed, blunt object globe trauma of their prior. it may be limited to the posterior pole (berlin’s edema), o...

Convolutional neural networks are powerful tools for image segmentation and classification. Here, we use this method to identify and mark the heart region of Drosophila at different developmental stages in the cross-sectional images acquired by a custom optical coherence microscopy (OCM) system. With our well-trained convolutional neural network model, the heart regions through multiple heartbe...

OBJECTIVES Optical coherence tomography, an imaging modality using near-infrared light, produces cross-sectional tissue images with a lateral pixel resolution of 10 microm. However, normative data is first needed on epithelial thickness for lesion characterisation, and, to date, little exists. The purpose of our study is to measure normal laryngeal epithelial thickness by in vivo optical cohere...

We have developed optical coherence tomography system with KTN optical probe for a diagnosis in the orthopedic surgery fields. The present system demonstrates that biological image was measured by using KTN optical scanner for having degree of freedom in sample arm as optical coherence tomography. In addition, the developed optical coherence tomography (OCT) system has shown feasibility for ima...

this paper presents a new three-dimensional curvelet transform based dictionary learning for automatic segmentation of intraretinalcysts, most relevant prognostic biomarker in neovascular age-related macular degeneration, from 3d spectral-domain optical coherencetomography (sd-oct) images. in particular, we focus on the spectralis sd-oct (heidelberg engineering, heidelberg, germany) system, and...

PURPOSE To report the findings of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in three cases of diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN). METHODS Three young patients with confirmed diagnosis of diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis were followed-up using Stratus OCT. RESULTS Optical coherence tomography findings included retinal nerve fiber layer atrophy and focal edema where the worm...

An ultra-high-speed spectral domain optical Doppler tomography (SD-ODT) system is used to acquire images of blood flow in a human retina in vivo, at 29,000 depth profiles (A-lines) per second and with data acquisition over 99% of the measurement time. The phase stability of the system is examined and image processing algorithms are presented that allow accurate determination of bi-directional D...

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a noninvasive approach that can visualize blood vessels down to the capillary level. With the advent of high-speed OCT and efficient algorithms, practical OCTA of ocular circulation is now available to ophthalmologists. Clinical investigations that used OCTA have increased exponentially in the past few years. This review will cover the history ...

ince intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) was introduced in the early 1990 s,1,2 it has been used not only as an adjunctive device to percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), but also as a research tool to evaluate vessel structure in detail. Although IVUS has helped broaden our understanding of coronary artery structure, its limited spatial resolution does not allow for the assessment of microstr...
