      Comparison of macular choroidal thickness in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome to normal control subjects with enhanced-depth SD-OCT imaging
      Purpose To test the hypothesis that macular choroidal thickness is lower in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) as compared to healthy control subjects. Methods In this cross-sectional, observational study, 38 non-glaucomatous PXS subjects and 37 healthy volunteers were enrolled in a tertiary care Glaucoma Clinic. The macular region was scanned with the enhanced depth imaging (EDI) protocol of a spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) device (Spectralis OCT, Heidelberg Engineering ...

      Scientists look FTD in the eye
      A routine eye test may help clinicians identify early signs of at least one form of FTD according to a new study published on April 12 in Science Translational Medicine. The study, led by Li Gan and Ari Green at the University of California in San Francisco, found that people heterozygous for progranulin (GRN) mutations without cognitive symptoms exhibited twice the number of lipid-rich deposits, known as lipofuscin, in the ...

    6. Near-IR and CP-OCT imaging of suspected occlusal caries lesions

      Explore Wiley Online Library Dentistry
      Near-IR and CP-OCT imaging of suspected occlusal caries lesions
      Introduction Radiographic methods have poor sensitivity for occlusal lesions and by the time the lesions are radiolucent they have typically progressed deep into the dentin. New more sensitive imaging methods are needed to detect occlusal lesions. In this study, cross-polarization optical coherence tomography (CP-OCT) and near-IR imaging were used to image questionable occlusal lesions (QOC's) that were not visible on radiographs but had been scheduled for restoration on 30 ...

      Enamel Thickness Determination by Optical Coherence Tomography: In vitro Validation
      Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been introduced in dentistry as a nondestructive diagnostic imaging tool that does not utilize ionizing radiation. This study investigated the agreement between polarization-sensitive OCT (PS-OCT), microcomputed tomography (-CT), and histology for enamel thickness measurements. Human enamel samples were prepared and evaluated with -CT and PS-OCT and then sectioned and observed via digital transversal light microscopy. For all methods, a standard transversal section (b-scan) in each ...
