  Explore BJO Online Jan 29 2021 Ophthalmology
  
  Aim To examine the associations of air pollution with both self-reported age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and in vivo measures of retinal sublayer thicknesses. Methods We included 115954 UK Biobank participants aged 4069 years old in this cross-sectional study. Ambient air pollution measures included particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) and nitrogen oxides (NO x ). Participants with self-reported ocular conditions, high refractive error ( 6 or +6 diopters) and poor spectral-domain optical ...

4. Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) in Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder
  
  Explore Frontiers Dec 30 2020 Neurology , Ophthalmology
  
  Vascular changes are increasingly recognized as important factors in the pathophysiology of neuroinflammatory disease, especially in multiple sclerosis (MS). The relatively novel technology of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) images the retinal and choroidal vasculature non-invasively and in a depth-resolved manner. OCTA provides an alternative quantitative measure of retinal damage, by measuring vascular density instead of structural atrophy. Preliminary results suggest OCTA is sensitive to retinal damage in early disease ...

5. AI-supported test predicts eye disease three years before symptoms
  
  Explore EurekAlert! Dec 18 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  A pioneering new eye test, developed by scientists at UCL in collaboration with the Western Eye Hospital, London, may predict wet AMD, a leading cause of severe sight loss, three years before symptoms develop. Researchers hope their test could be used to identify the disease early enough so that treatment can effectively prevent any vision loss. The findings of the study, funded by Wellcome, are published today in Expert Review ...

6. Phenotyping of retinal neovascularization in ischemic retinal vein occlusion using wide field OCT angiography
  
  Explore Nature Publishing Group Nov 30 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  Background/objectives Abnormal retinal neovascularization caused by ischemic retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a frequent cause of visually significant vitreous hemorrhage. The early detection of new vessels may be challenging and often requires the use of invasive tests such as fundus fluorescein angiography (FA). We demonstrate the use of wide-field optical coherence tomography angiography (WF-OCTA) in the detection and characterization of neovascularization secondary to ischemic RVO. Subjects/methods We conducted ...

7. Hyper-reflectivity on optical coherence tomography in macular telangiectasia type 2
  
  Explore LWW Online Nov 25 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: To define, characterize and classify hyper-reflectivity on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and report its prevalence in macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel). Methods: In a primary cross-sectional analysis, multimodal imaging data were retrospectively analyzed. The definition of hyper-reflectivity and neovascularization on OCT followed OCT-angiography-based criteria. Eyes were graded for the presence of hyper-reflectivity and neovascularization and further categorized into three classes based on position and extent of hyper-reflectivity. In a ...

8. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) in neuro-ophthalmology
  
  Explore Nature Publishing Group Nov 25 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive medical imaging technology that is playing an increasing role in the routine assessment and management of patients with neuro-ophthalmic conditions. Its ability to characterise the optic nerve head, peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer and cellular layers of the macula including the ganglion cell layer enables qualitative and quantitative assessment of optic nerve disease. In this review, we discuss technical features of OCT and ...

  Explore Nature Publishing Group Nov 9 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a paragon of success in the translation of biophotonics science to clinical practice. OCT systems have become ubiquitous in eye clinics but access beyond this is limited by their cost, size and the skill required to operate the devices. Remarkable progress has been made in the development of OCT technology to improve the speed of acquisition, the quality of images and into functional extensions of ...

10. Investigation of the efficacy of an online tool for improving the diagnosis of macular lesions imaged by optical coherence tomography
  
  Explore ScienceDirect Nov 4 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive method for diagnosis and monitoring of retinal (typically, macular) conditions. The unfamiliar nature of OCT images can present considerable challenges for some community optometrists. The purpose of this research is to develop and assess the efficacy of a novel internet resource designed to assist optometrists in using OCT for diagnosis of macular disease and patient management. Methods: An online tool (OCTAID) has ...

  Explore OSA | OSA Publishing Oct 3 2020 Broadband Sources
  
  High-power, broadband quantum-dot (QD) superluminescent diodes (SLDs) are ideal light sources for optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging systems but have previously mainly been fabricated on native GaAs- or InP-based substrates. Recently, significant progress has been made to emigrate QD SLDs from native substrates to silicon substrates. Here, we demonstrate electrically pumped continuous-wave InAs QD SLDs monolithically grown on silicon substrates with significantly improved performance thanks to the achievement of a ...

14. Deep iterative vessel segmentation in OCT angiography
  
  Explore OSA | OSA Publishing Jun 6 2020 Ophthalmology
  
  This paper addresses retinal vessel segmentation on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) images of the human retina. Our approach is motivated by the need for high precision image-guided delivery of regenerative therapies in vitreo-retinal surgery. OCT-A visualizes macular vasculature, the main landmark of the surgically targeted area, at a level of detail and spatial extent unattainable by other imaging modalities. Thus, automatic extraction of detailed vessel maps can ultimately inform ...
