5. 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)

6. Electrophoretic mobility of concentrated carbon black dispersions in a low-permittivity solvent by optical coherence tomography

   Explore Article ScienceDirect (Feb 24 2010) Other Non-Medical

   Electrophoretic mobilities of concentrated dispersions of carbon black particles in a low-permittivity solvent were measured using differential-phase optical coherence tomography (DP-OCT). An electrode spacing of only 0.18 mm enables measurement of highly concentrated dispersions up to 1 wt.% of highly absorbing carbon black particles with high electric fields at low potentials. The capabilities of this DP-OCT method, including high sensitivity, high spatial resolution, and strong electric fields, enable enhanced measurement ... (Read Full Article)

7. Complex polarization ratio to determine polarization properties of anisotropic tissue using polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography

   Explore Article opticsinfobase.org (Jul 20 2009) Ophthalmology

   Complex polarization ratio (CPR) in materials with birefringence and biattenuance is shown as a logarithmic spiral in the complex plane. A multi-state Levenberg-Marquardt nonlinear fitting algorithm using the CPR trajectory collected by polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) was developed to determine polarization properties of an anisotropic scattering medium. The Levenberg-Marquardt nonlinear fitting algorithm using the CPR trajectory is verified using simulated PS-OCT data with speckle noise. Birefringence and biattenuance ... (Read Full Article)

    Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Mar 6 2009) Urology

    Pulsed light emitted from a near infrared (=800nm) femtosecond laser is capable of plasma induced photodisruption of various materials. We used femtosecond laser pulses to ablate human urinary calculi. Femtosecond pulsed laser interaction with urinary calculi was investigated with various stone compositions, different incident fluences and number of applied pulses. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography was used to image cross sections of ablation craters on the surface of urinary calculi. Our ... (Read Full Article)

    Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 20 2009) Ophthalmology

    Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, a measure of glaucoma progression, can be measured in images acquired by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). The accuracy of RNFL thickness estimation, however, is affected by the quality of the OCT images. In this paper, a new parameter, signal deviation (SD), which is based on the standard deviation of the intensities in OCT images, is introduced for objective assessment of OCT image ...

    Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an intravascular imaging technology capable of providing high-resolution, cross-sectional images of arterial structure and pathology. Often compared with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), OCT can better identify structures of the arterial wall, such as the internal and externalelastic laminae (IEL and EEL),1,2 as well as provide precise measurement of the intimal thickness separate from the medial layer.3 Additional studies have demonstrated OCT's ability to differentiate the composition ...
