      Deep OCT Angiography Image Generation for Motion Artifact Suppression
      Eye movements, blinking and other motion during the acquisition of optical coherence tomography (OCT) can lead to artifacts, when processed to OCT angiography (OCTA) images. Affected scans emerge as high intensity (white) or missing (black) regions, resulting in lost information. The aim of this research is to fill these gaps using a deep generative model for OCT to OCTA image translation relying on a single intact OCT scan. Therefore, a ...

      Measuring coronary artery flow rates using intravascular optical coherence tomography to improve the assessment of percutaneous coronary intervention (Thesis)
      In this project, a blood flow quantification technique was developed based on a novel backscattering indicator-dilution approach for intravascular optical coherence tomography (IV-OCT). It achieved the goal of obtaining the flow velocity in a coronary artery of interest by analyzing the backscattering signal from blood after passage of a bolus of Ringer's lactate or another transparent injectate, in parallel to thermodilution coronary flow reserve (CFR). In contrast to thermodilution ...

      Application of Corneal Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography for Assessment of Vessel Depth in Corneal Neovascularization
      Purpose: To map and measure the depths of corneal neovascularization (NV) using 3-dimensional optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) at 2 different wavelengths. Methods: Corneal NV of varying severity, distribution, and underlying etiology was examined. Average NV depth and vessel density were measured using 840-nm spectral-domain OCTA and 1050-nm swept-source OCTA. The OCTA results were compared with clinical slit-lamp estimation of NV depth. Results: Twelve eyes with corneal NV from 12 ...

      Global Analysis of Macular Choriocapillaris Perfusion in Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration using Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography
      Purpose : Swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) was used to investigate if the clinical stage of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) was correlated with global and regional macular choriocapillaris (CC) perfusion. Methods : In this retrospective, cross-sectional study, 6 6-mm SS-OCTA images from eyes with early, intermediate, and advanced dry AMD (56 eyes, 41 patients) were analyzed using algorithms described in the literature to assess regional flow deficit percentage (FD%) and ...

      Retinal Nonperfusion Relationship to Arteries or Veins Observed on Widefield Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Diabetic Retinopathy
      Purpose : To evaluate whether retinal capillary nonperfusion is found predominantly adjacent to arteries or veins in eyes with diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods : Sixty-three eyes from 44 patients with proliferative DR (PDR) or non-PDR (NPDR) were included. Images (12 12-mm) foveal-centered optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) images were taken using the Zeiss Plex Elite 9000. In 37 eyes, widefield montages with five fixation points were also obtained. A semiautomatic algorithm ...

      Controlling for Artifacts in Widefield Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Measurements of Non-Perfusion Area
      The recent clinical adoption of optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) has enabled non-invasive, volumetric visualization of ocular vasculature at micron-scale resolutions. Initially limited to 3mm3mm and 6mm6mm fields-of-view (FOV), commercial OCTA systems now offer 12mm12mm, or larger, imaging fields. While larger FOVs promise a more complete visualization of retinal disease, they also introduce new challenges to the accurate and reliable interpretation of OCTA data. In particular, because of vignetting ...

      Comparing the Risk Factors of Plaque Rupture and Failed Plaque Healing in Acute Coronary Syndrome
      The article by Vergallo et al 1 in this issue of JAMA Cardiology supports a hypothesis that healed plaques are a marker for reduced acute coronary syndrome (ACS) risk. This commentary expands on this idea by examining a mechanistic hypothesis of their results beyond looking at healing just as a marker. Specifically, failed healing, which correlated in the study by Vergallo et al 1 with long core axial extent, predisposes ...
