      In Vivo Imaging of the Mouse Reproductive Organs, Embryo Transfer, and Oviduct Cilia Dynamics Using Optical Coherence Tomography
      The oviduct (or fallopian tube) serves as the site where a number of major reproductive events occur for the start of a new life in mammals. Understanding the oviduct physiology is essential to uncover hidden mechanisms of the human reproduction and its disorders, yet the current analysis of the oviduct that is largely limited to in vitro imaging is a significant technical hurdle. To overcome this barrier, we have recently ...

      In vivo three-dimensional tracking of sperm behaviors in the mouse oviduct
      Mammalian sperm evolutionarily acquired complex mechanisms regulating their behaviors, which are thought to be critical in navigating through the female reproductive tract toward fertilization. However, all current knowledge of this process is largely extrapolated from in vitro and ex vivo studies, because in vivo analysis of sperm in their native fertilization environment has not been possible. Here we report a functional optical coherence tomography approach that allows, for the first ...

      Functional optical coherence tomography for live dynamic analysis of mouse embryonic cardiogenesis
      Blood flow, heart contraction, and tissue stiffness are important regulators of cardiac morphogenesis and function during embryonic development. Defining how these factors are integrated is critically important to advance prevention, diagnostics, and treatment of congenital heart defects. Mammalian embryonic development is taking place deep within the female body, which makes cardiodynamic imaging and analysis during early developmental stages in humans inaccessible. With thousands of mutant lines available and well-established genetic ...

      Live dynamic analysis of mouse embryonic cardiogenesis with functional optical coherence tomography
      Hemodynamic load, contractile forces, and tissue elasticity are regulators of cardiac development and contribute to the mechanical homeostasis of the developing vertebrate heart. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a prevalent condition in the United States that affects 8 in 1000 live births[1], and has been linked to disrupted cardiac biomechanics[2-4]. Therefore, it is important to understand how these forces integrate and regulate vertebrate cardiac development to inform clinical ...

      Biomechanical assessment of myocardial infarction using optical coherence elastography
      Myocardial infarction (MI) leads to cardiomyocyte loss, impaired cardiac function, and heart failure. Molecular genetic analyses of myocardium in mouse models of ischemic heart disease have provided great insight into the mechanisms of heart regeneration, which is promising for novel therapies after MI. Although biomechanical factors are considered an important aspect in cardiomyocyte proliferation, there are limited methods for mechanical assessment of the heart in the mouse MI model. This ...

      Prolonged in vivo functional assessment of the mouse oviduct using optical coherence tomography through a dorsal imaging window
      The oviduct (or fallopian tube) serves as an environment for gamete transport, fertilization, and preimplantation embryo development in mammals. Although there has been increasing evidence linking infertility with disrupted oviduct function, the specific roles that the oviduct plays in both normal and impaired reproductive processes remain unclear. The mouse is an important mammalian model to study human reproduction. However, most of the current analyses of the mouse oviduct rely on ...

      Evaluation of Femtosecond Laser Versus Manual Clear Corneal Incisions in Cataract Surgery Using Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography
      PURPOSE: To investigate the wound healing changes of clear corneal incisions performed with a femtosecond laser or a steel bevel knife in cataract surgery using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. METHODS: Prospectively, consecutive patients undergoing either femtosecond laserassisted cataract surgery (femtosecond laser group) using the LenSx laser (Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, TX) or traditional cataract surgery using steel blades (control group) were enrolled. The incidence of posterior wound gape, Descemet ...

      Optical Coherence Tomography Transecting an Omega Retinal Venous Loop en Face in a Patient With Diabetic Retinopathy
      The image depicts a woman in her mid-40s with poorly controlled insulin-dependent diabetes and bilateral proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Fundus photography of the left eye with corresponding spectral-domain optical coherence tomography captured an omega retinal venous loop en face ( Figure , A). This image demonstrates that the venous loop is located in the preretinal plane and is in direct contact with the posterior hyaloid face ( Figure , B).

      Comparison and combination of rotational imaging optical coherence tomography and selective plane illumination microscopy for embryonic study
      Several optical imaging techniques have been applied for high-resolution embryonic imaging using different contrast mechanisms, each with their own benefits and limitations. In this study, we imaged the same E9.5 mouse embryo with rotational imaging optical coherence tomography (RI-OCT) and selective plane illumination microscopy (SPIM). RI-OCT overcomes optical penetration limits of traditional OCT imaging that prohibit full-body imaging of mouse embryos at later stages by imaging the samples from ...

      Space Flight–Associated Neuro-ocular Syndrome
      New and unique physiologic and pathologic systemic and neuro-ocular responses have been documented in astronauts during and after long-duration space flight. Although the precise cause remains unknown, space flightassociated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS) has been adopted as an appropriate descriptive term. The Space Medicine Operations Division of the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has documented the variable occurrence of SANS in astronauts returning from long-duration space flight on the ...

      Speckle variance optical coherence tomography of blood flow in the beating mouse embryonic heart
      Efficient separation of blood and cardiac wall in the beating embryonic heart is essential and critical for experiment-based computational modelling and analysis of early-stage cardiac biomechanics. Although speckle variance optical coherence tomography (SV-OCT) relying on calculation of intensity variance over consecutively acquired frames is a powerful approach for segmentation of fluid flow from static tissue, application of this method in the beating embryonic heart remains challenging because moving structures generate ...

      Quantifying the effects of UV-A/riboflavin crosslinking on the elastic anisotropy and hysteresis of the porcine cornea by noncontact optical coherence elastography
      The collagen fibril orientation of the cornea can provide critical information about cornea tissue health because diseases such as keratoconus and therapeutic interventions such as UV-A/riboflavin corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) can alter the ultrastructural arrangement of collagen fibrils. Here, we quantify the elastic anisotropy and hysteresis of in situ porcine corneas as a function of intraocular pressure (IOP) with noncontact optical coherence elastography. Moreover, the effects of UV-A riboflavin ...

      Applanation optical coherence elastography: noncontact measurement of intraocular pressure, corneal biomechanical properties, and corneal geometry with a single instrument
      Current clinical tools provide critical information about ocular health such as intraocular pressure (IOP). However, they lack the ability to quantify tissue material properties, which are potent markers for ocular tissue health and integrity. We describe a single instrument to measure the eye-globe IOP, quantify corneal biomechanical properties, and measure corneal geometry with a technique termed applanation optical coherence elastography (Appl-OCE). An ultrafast OCT system enabled visualization of corneal dynamics ...
