  This paper describes a proof-of-concept of a miniaturized spectral-domain optical coherence tomography system, based on photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology. The integrated optics 512-channel spectrometer consists of cascaded arrayed waveguide gratings (AWG) with the output waveguides directly attached to a CCD detector. The spectrometer has a center wavelength of 850 nm and a spectral sampling interval of 0.22 nm. The PIC has a footprint of 2.0x2.7 cm2 ...

3. The role of optical coherence tomography and infrared oculography in assessing the visual pathway and CNS in multiple sclerosis
  
  Explore futuremedicine.com Oct 2 2018 Ophthalmology
  
  In this review, a current overview is provided of how optical coherence tomography and infrared oculography can aid in assessing the visual system and CNS in multiple sclerosis (MS). Both afferent and efferent visual disorders are common in MS and visual complaints can have a tremendous impact on daily functioning. Optical coherence tomography and infrared oculography can detect and quantify visual disorders with high accuracy, but could also serve as ...

  Purpose To assess parameters on optical coherence tomography (OCT), and their correlation with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in patients with non-resolving central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Methods For 25 non-resolving CSC patients treated with photodynamic therapy (PDT), the thickness of retinal layers was assessed on the foveal spectral-domain (SD) OCT scan. Evaluated OCT parameters included the central retinal thickness (CRT), defined as the internal limiting membrane (ILM) to ellipsoid zone (EZ ...

5. Bronchial Thermoplasty-Induced Acute Airway Effects Assessed with Optical Coherence Tomography in Severe Asthma
  
  Explore Karger Publishers Aug 21 2018 Pulmonology
  
  Background: Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is an endoscopic treatment for severe asthma targeting airway smooth muscle (ASM) with radiofrequent energy. Although implemented worldwide, the effect of BT treatment on the airways is unclear. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a novel imaging technique, based on near-infrared light, that generates high-resolution cross-sectional airway wall images. Objective: To assess the safety and feasibility of OCT in severe asthma patients and determine acute airway effects ...

6. Feasibility of using optical coherence tomography to detect radiation-induced fibrosis and residual cancer extent after neoadjuvant chemo-radiation therapy: an ex vivo study
  
  Explore OSA | OSA Publishing Aug 20 2018 Gastroenterology
  
  Treatment of resectable esophageal cancer includes neoadjuvant chemo-radiation therapy (nCRT) followed by esophagectomy in operable patients. High-risk surgery may have been avoided in patients with a pathological complete response (pCR). We investigated the feasibility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect residual cancer and radiation-induced fibrosis in 10 esophageal cancer patients that underwent nCRT followed by esophagectomy. We compared our OCT findings with histopathology. Overall, OCT was able to differentiate ...

7. Needle-based optical coherence tomography for the detection of prostate cancer: a visual and quantitative analysis in 20 patients
  
  Explore SPIE Digital Library Aug 15 2018
  
  iagnostic accuracy of needle-based optical coherence tomography (OCT) for prostate cancer detection by visual and quantitative analysis is defined. 106 three-dimensional (3-D)-OCT data sets were acquired in 20 prostates after radical prostatectomy and precisely matched with pathology. OCT images were grouped per histological category. Two reviewers performed blind assessments of the OCT images. Sensitivity and specificity for malignancy detection were calculated. Quantitative analyses by automated optical attenuation coefficient calculation ...

  The current limitations in prostate cancer diagnostics lead to over- and undertreatment for a significant fraction of patients. Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) are focal imaging modalities with potential for in-vivo prostate imaging. The investigators anticipate that integrating focal imaging with MRI/TRUS fusion will further improve prostate cancer detection and provides a real-time histopathological threedimensional representation of the tumor lesions. This is an investigator-initiated, prospective ...

  Explore JRP-JMIR Research Protocols May 22 2018 Urology
  
  Background: Focal therapy for prostate cancer has been proposed as an alternative treatment to whole-gland therapies in selected men to diminish side effects in localized prostate cancer. As nowadays imaging cannot offer complete prostate cancer disease characterization, multicore systematic biopsies are recommended (transrectal or transperineal). Optical imaging techniques such as confocal laser endomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography allow in vivo, high-resolution imaging. Moreover, they can provide real-time visualization and analysis ...

  In this study; an OCT-based intra-operative imaging method for blood flow detection during esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction is investigated. Change in perfusion of the gastric tube tissue can lead to ischemia; with a high morbidity and mortality as a result. Anastomotic leakage (incidence 520%) is one of the most severe complications after esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction. Optical imaging techniques provide for minimal-invasive and real-time visualization tools that can ...

11. Feasibility of using optical coherence tomography to detect acute radiation-induced esophageal damage in small animal models
  
  Explore SPIE Digital Library Apr 16 2018 Gastroenterology
  
  Lung cancer survival is poor, and radiation therapy patients often suffer serious treatment side effects. The esophagus is particularly sensitive leading to acute radiation-induced esophageal damage (ARIED). We investigated the feasibility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) for minimally invasive imaging of the esophagus with high resolution (10m) to detect ARIED in mice. Thirty mice underwent cone-beam computed tomography imaging for initial setup assessment and dose planning followed by a single-dose ...

13. Ex-vivo study in nephroureterectomy specimens defining the role of 3-D upper urinary tract visualization using optical coherence tomography and endoluminal ultrasound
  
  Explore SPIE Digital Library Feb 17 2018 Urology
  
  Minimal invasive endoscopic treatment for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UUT-UC) is advocated in patients with low-risk disease and limited tumor volume. Diagnostic ureterorenoscopy combined with biopsy is the diagnostic standard. This study aims to evaluate two alternative diagnostic techniques for UUT-UC: optical coherence tomography (OCT) and endoluminal ultrasound (ELUS). Following nephroureterectomy, OCT, ELUS, and computed tomography (CT) were performed of the complete nephroureterectomy specimen. Visualization software (AMIRA) was used ...
