3. Depth-resolved imaging and detection of micro-retroreflectors within biological tissue using Optical Coherence Tomography

   Explore Article opticsinfobase.org (Aug 2 2010)

   A new approach to in vivo biosensor design is introduced, based on the use of an implantable micron-sized retroreflector-based platform and non-invasive imaging of its surface reflectivity by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). The possibility of using OCT for the depth-resolved imaging and detection of micro-retroreflectors in highly turbid media, including tissue, is demonstrated. The maximum imaging depth for the detection of the micro-retroreflector-based platform within the surrounding media was found ... (Read Full Article)

4. Comparison of Optical Coherence Tomography and Scanning Laser Polarimetry Measurements in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

   Explore Article LWW Online (May 21 2010) Neurology , Ophthalmology

   Purpose. To compare optical coherence tomography (OCT) and scanning laser polarimetry (GDx) measurements of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with and without optic neuritis (ON). Methods. OCT and GDx were performed on 68 MS patients. Qualifying eyes were divided into two groups: 51 eyes with an ON history >=6 months before (ON eyes) and 65 eyes with no history of ON (non-ON eyes). Several ... (Read Full Article)

7. Imaging of mouse embryonic eye development using optical coherence tomography

   Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Mar 2 2010) Ophthalmology

   Congenital abnormalities are often caused by genetic disorders which alter the normal development of the eye. Embryonic eye imaging in mouse model is important for understanding of normal and abnormal eye development and can contribute to prevention and treatment of eye defects in humans. In this study, we used Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography (SS-OCT) to image eye structure in mouse embryos at 12.5 to 17.5 days post coitus (dpc). ... (Read Full Article)

8. Measurement of vibrations induced on the surface of crystalline eye lens using PhS-SDOCT

   Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Mar 2 2010) Ophthalmology

   Experimental assessment of stiffness of crystalline lens of the eye can help in understanding several ocular diseases. Studies have shown that stiffness of the eye lens increases with age that might contribute to loss of accommodation. The stiffness of the lens could be assessed by measuring mechanically induced surface waves propagating on its surface. Here we present preliminary results on phase sensitive spectral domain optical coherence tomography (PhS-SDOCT) measurements of ... (Read Full Article)

9. Quantification of microbubbles in blood with phase-sensitive SSOCT

   Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 23 2010)

   We have developed a phase stabilized swept source optical coherence tomography (PhS-SSOCT), that shows an axial resolution of 10 µm, phase sensitivity of 0.04 radians, imaging depth of up to 6 mm in air and a scanning speed of 20 kHz for a single A-line. In this paper, the PhS-SSOCT is applied to quantify gas microbubbles in blood in vitro. The results indicate that the system is able to detect ... (Read Full Article)

    Explore Article opticsinfobase.org (Nov 20 2009) Cardiology , Developmental Biology

    Recent progress in optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows imaging dynamic structures and fluid flow within scattering tissue, such as the beating heart and blood flow in mouse embryos. Accurate representation and analysis of these dynamic behaviors require reducing the noise of the acquired data. Although noise can be reduced by averaging multiple neighboring pixels in space or time, such operations reduce the effective spatial or temporal resolution that can be ... (Read Full Article)

    The rat has long been considered an excellent system to study mammalian embryonic cardiovascular physiology, but has lacked the extensive genetic tools available in the mouse to be able to create single gene mutations. However, the recent establishment of rat embryonic stem cell lines facilitates the generation of new models in the rat embryo to link changes in physiology with altered gene function to define the underlying mechanisms behind congenital ...
