2. Multiscale skin imaging in vivo using optical coherence tomography
  
  Explore IOPscience 10 hours ago Dermatology
  
  Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive high-resolution diagnostic imaging modality that plays an increasingly important role in dermatology. Diagnosis of skin diseases using OCT requires both cellular-level high resolution and large area skin coverage. In practice, however, there exists a trade-off between the achievable spatial resolutions and the transverse scanning range. In this study, we report a Micro-OCT ( OCT) system that is capable of providing three-dimensional images of the ...

3. Evaluating micro-optical coherence tomography (μOCT) as a feasible imaging tool for pancreatic disease diagnosis
  
  Explore IEEE Xplore May 10 2018
  
  Pancreatic cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer mortality worldwide due to the lack of reliable tools for early diagnosis of this cancer. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of micro-optical coherence tomography (OCT) as an imaging tool for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancers. Specifically, we constructed a OCT device that achieves a resolution of 1.67 m and 1.79 m in axial and lateral directions ...

  Explore OSA | OSA Publishing Apr 26 2018
  
  Compromising the inherent trade-off between transverse resolution and depth of focus (DOF) remains a long-standing issue in optical coherence tomography (OCT). In this work, we report a novel techniqueparallel multiple aperture synthesis (pMAS) to simultaneously generate multiple optical apertures in an OCT sample arm by employing a two-surface coated mirror. In the proposed pMAS, the DOF is extended by a factor of 16.49 without sacrificing the transverse resolution for ...

5. Tunable optical coherence tomography in the infrared range using visible photons
  
  Explore IOPscience Apr 5 2018
  
  Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an appealing technique for bio-imaging, medicine, and material analysis. For many applications, OCT in mid- and far-infrared (IR) leads to significantly more accurate results. Reported mid-IR OCT systems require light sources and photodetectors which operate in mid-IR range. These devices are expensive and need cryogenic cooling. Here, we report a proof-of-concept demonstration of a wavelength tunable IR OCT technique with detection of only visible range ...

6. Pixel-Reassigned Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography
  
  Explore IEEE Xplore Mar 30 2018 Ophthalmology
  
  A novel method of pixel reassignment (PRA) is proposed to achieve transverse superresolution in the confocal microscopy. Inspired by it, for the first time, we report a pixel-reassigned spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) with 1.5 times transverse resolution improvement both in numerical simulations and imaging experiments. PRA is implemented by transversely shifting the detection fiber from the on-axis position to five off-axis positions, capturing cross-sectional images at each shifting ...

8. Multiple aperture synthetic optical coherence tomography for biological tissue imaging
  
  Explore OSA | OSA Publishing Jan 13 2018
  
  An inherent compromise must be made between transverse resolution and depth of focus (DOF) in spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Thus far, OCT has not been capable of providing a sufficient DOF to stably acquire cellular-resolution images. We previously reported a novel technique named multiple aperture synthesis (MAS) to extend the DOF in high-resolution OCT [Optica4, 701 (2017)]. In this technique, the illumination beam is scanned across the objective ...

  Optical coherence tomography angiography is a non-invasive imaging technique that now allows for simultaneous in vivo imaging of the morphology as well as the vasculature in the eye. In this review, we provide an update on the existing clinical applications of optical coherence tomography angiography technology from the anterior to posterior segment of the eye. We also discuss the limitations of optical coherence tomography angiography technology, as well as the ...

  Membrane-based filtration is an emerging technique for processing oily wastewater. Improving the efficiency of oil-water separation via membranes entails novel techniques for studying the complex interactions between the oil droplets and membrane underlying fouling. This paper presents the first study that applies optical coherence tomography (OCT) to the characterization of membrane fouling by oil emulsions. A series of dead-end filtration experiments was performed to characterize the rejection of oil droplets ...

  We report a proof-of-concept demonstration of a tunable infrared (IR) optical coherence tomography (OCT) technique with detection of only visible range photons. Our method is based on the nonclassical interference of frequency correlated photon pairs. The nonlinear crystal, introduced in the Michelson-type interferometer, generates photon pairs with one photon in the visible and another in the IR range. The intensity of detected visible photons depends on the phase and loss ...

  Diagnosis of corneal disease and challenges in corneal transplantation require comprehensive understanding of corneal anatomy, particularly that of the posterior cornea. Micro-optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a potentially suitable tool to meet this need, owing to its ultrahigh isotropic spatial resolution, high image acquisition rate and depth priority scanning mode. In this study, we explored the ability of OCT to visualize micro-anatomical structures of the posterior cornea ex vivo and ...

  Our ability to detect neoplastic changes in gastrointestinal (GI) tracts is limited by the lack of an endomicroscopic imaging tool that provides cellular-level structural details of GI mucosa over a large tissue area. In this paper, we report a fiber-optic based micro-optical coherence tomography (OCT) system and demonstrate its capability to acquire cellular-level details of GI tissue through circumferential scanning. The system achieves an axial resolution of 2.48m in ...

16. Polarization management to mitigate misalignment-induced fringe fading in fiber-based optical coherence tomography
  
  Explore OSA | OSA Publishing Aug 7 2017
  
  In fiber-based optical coherence tomography (OCT), the interference fringes suffer from the fading effect due to misalignment of the light polarization states between the reference and sample arms, resulting in sensitivity degradation and image intensity variation. We theoretically and experimentally analyzed the relation between the misalignment and the fading coefficient. Assuming that the variation of the light polarization in single-mode fiber (SMF) was a random process, we statistically quantified the ...
