2. Method and apparatus for measurement of optical properties in tissue

   Explore Article uspto.gov (Aug 31 2010) Patents , Probes

   A method of analyzing tissue includes inserting a radiation source into tissue, impinging radiation upon the tissue, obtaining a sample signal of the radiation that impinges upon the tissue, and determining a refractive index of the tissue from the sample signal. The method may also include determining at least one other optical property of the tissue. The method may provide for identifying tissue as part of a biopsy method. A ... (Read Full Article)

6. Dynamic spectral-domain optical coherence elastography for tissue characterization

   Explore Article opticsinfobase.org (Jun 16 2010)

   A dynamic spectral-domain optical coherence elastography (OCE) imaging technique is reported. In this technique, audio-frequency compressive vibrations are generated by a piezoelectric stack as external excitation, and strain rates in the sample are calculated and mapped quantitatively using phase-sensitive spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. At different driving frequencies, this technique provides contrast between sample regions with different mechanical properties, and thus is used to mechanically characterize tissue. We present images of ... (Read Full Article)

7. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Microscopy: Microscopic Laser Radar

   Explore Article eweb.osa.org (Jun 4 2010)

   Combining optical coherence tomography instrumentation and the principles of synthetic aperture radar, researchers have developed a new method for reconstructing 3-D optical images—even in regions that are out of focus in the raw data. Doctors may soon be able to use this approach as a noninvasive diagnostic tool in clinical settings. Microscopic 3-D optical imaging provides guidance to tomorrow’s doctors during surgical interventions. In many clinical scenarios, doctors require high-resolution ... (Read Full Article)

8. Simple Equations Power Scott Carney's Research

   Explore Article beckman.illinois.edu (Jun 2 2010)

   Like any good theoretical physicist, Scott Carney likes explanations that are simple yet – in his discipline’s most praiseworthy adjective – elegant. For Carney, a Beckman Institute researcher with a focus on theoretical optics, the explanation that best serves his work is Maxwell’s equations, a set of four equations describing the fundamentals of electromagnetism. “Your life is dominated by electromagnetism and gravity, and gravity is simple,” Carney explained in his ...

9. New Imaging Method uses Magnetic Nanoparticles that Move

   Explore Article beckman.illinois.edu (May 28 2010)

   Applying one of the oldest natural forces known to science, magnetism, researchers at the University of Illinois have developed an imaging technology that noninvasively moves nanoparticles inside the body in order to target tumor cells and other tissue with a high degree of specificity. The contrast agent technology enables micron scale tissue detection and manipulation and represents, the researchers write, “a new methodology for contrast enhancement and therapeutic interventions in ...

    A method of forming an image of a sample includes performing SOCT on a sample. The sample may include a contrast agent, which may include an absorbing agent and/or a scattering agent. A method of forming an image of tissue may include selecting a contrast agent, delivering the contrast agent to the tissue, acquiring SOCT data from the tissue, and converting the SOCT data into an image. The contributions to ... (Read Full Article)

11. Cross-validation of interferometric synthetic aperture microscopy and optical coherence tomography

    Explore Article opticsinfobase.org (May 10 2010) Microscopy

    Computationally reconstructed interferometric synthetic aperture microscopy is coregistered with optical coherence tomography (OCT) focal plane data to provide quantitative cross validation with OCT. This is accomplished through a qualitative comparison of images and a quantitative analysis of the width of the point-spread function in simulation and experiment. The width of the ISAM point-spread function is seen to be independent of depth, in contrast to OCT. (Read Full Article)

12. Sonification of optical coherence tomography data and images

    Explore Article opticsinfobase.org (Apr 27 2010) Ophthalmology

    Sonification is the process of representing data as non-speech audio signals. In this manuscript, we describe the auditory presentation of OCT data and images. OCT acquisition rates frequently exceed our ability to visually analyze image-based data, and multi-sensory input may therefore facilitate rapid interpretation. This conversion will be especially valuable in time-sensitive surgical or diagnostic procedures. In these scenarios, auditory feedback can complement visual data without requiring the surgeon to ...

    During breast-conserving surgeries, axillary lymph nodes draining from the primary tumor site are removed for disease staging. Although a high number of lymph nodes are often resected during sentinel and lymph-node dissections, only a relatively small percentage of nodes are found to be metastatic, a fact that must be weighed against potential complications such as lymphedema.Without a real-time in vivo or in situ intraoperative imaging tool to provide a microscopic ...
