Real-time OCT imaging of laser ablation of biological tissue
Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 23 2010)
During laser ablation of a diseased area, the surrounding tissues and organs suffer serious damage. In order to optimize laser ablation of biological tissues, it is necessary to observe the laser ablation in situ. The real-time imaging of tissue laser ablation is realized in the fusion system of the YAG ablation laser and optical coherence tomography (OCT). A swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) is combined with a YAG-laser ablation system. In this ...

Dynamic analysis of mental sweating by optical coherence tomography
Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 19 2010)
In the dynamic OCT of mental sweating, we have found internal mental sweating without ejection of excess sweat from the spiral lumen to the skin surface. Internal sweating occurs more often in the case where mental stress is applied to a volunteer, and it is more useful for evaluation of activity of the sympathetic nerve. Furthermore, the MIP imaging has been proposed for quick 3-D imaging of the spiral lumen ...

rpose: To assess the usefulness of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) in evaluating postoperative filtering bleb function. Methods: Forty-eight eyes of 39 patients who had earlier undergone trabeculectomy were enrolled. Blebs were imaged with a commercially available AS-OCT system. The correlation between intraocular pressure (IOP) and 4 quantitative parameters, bleb height, bleb wall thickness, and the height and extent of internal cavity, and 2 qualitative parameters, bleb wall reflectivity, ...

In vivo Ultrahigh-Resolution Ophthalmic Optical Coherence Tomography Using Gaussian-Shaped Supercontinuum
Explore Article jjap.ipap.jp (Jan 19 2010) Ophthalmology , Broadband Sources
We have demonstrated the in vivo ultrahigh-resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of the human eye using a Gaussian-shaped supercontinuum source. Using an ultrashort-pulse Ti:sapphire laser and a polarization-maintaining single-mode fiber, a linearly polarized, high-power, low-noise, Gaussian-shaped supercontinuum is generated in the wavelength region from 700 to 950 nm. For ophthalmic imaging, a wideband Gaussian-shaped supercontinuum with a bandwidth of 140 nm is generated at a center wavelength of 830 ...

Progress of OCT and its applications
Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Nov 25 2009)
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the cross-sectional imaging of biological tissue based on the low-coherence interferometry, where the image resolution is around 10 m with the imaging depth of 1 to 2 mm. Since its first demonstration, OCT has been developed intensively for clinical diagnoses of ophthalmology and arteriosclerosis. Beside the clinical applications, OCT is used for analysis of physiological functions underneath the human skin surface. Recently, we proposed and ... (Read Full Article)

Dynamic analysis of laser ablation of biological tissue using a real-time OCT
Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 12 2009)
In laser ablation of biological tissues, tomography of the tissue surface is necessary for measurement of the crater depth and observation of the thermal damage of the tissue. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a very promising candidate for an in-situ observation of the tissue. We demonstrate here dynamic analysis of tissue laser ablation using a real-time OCT.

Dynamic analysis of internal and external mental sweating by optical coherence tomography
Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 11 2009)
Mental sweating is human sweating that is accelerated via the sympathetic nerve by application of mental or physical stress. In the neurosciences, there is keen interest in this type of sweating, because the amount of sweat in response to a stress applied to a volunteer directly reflects activity of the sympathetic nerve. It is therefore of particular value that optical coherence tomography (OCT) can provide clear in vivo imaging of ... (Read Full Article)
