      Dynamic full-field optical coherence tomography: 3D live-imaging of retinal organoids
      Optical coherence tomography offers astounding opportunities to image the complex structure of living tissue, but lacks functional information. We present dynamic full-field optical coherence tomography to image living human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived retinal organoids non-invasively. Colored images with an endogenous contrast linked to organelle motility are generated, with sub-micrometer spatial resolution and millisecond temporal resolution, opening an avenue to identify specific cell types in living tissue via their function.

      Pre-, Intra-, and Post-Operative Evaluation of Extraocular Muscle Insertions Using Optical Coherence Tomography: A Comparison of Four Devices
      OCT (optical coherence tomography) is widely used in ophthalmology and pediatric ophthalmology, but limited research has been done on the use of OCT in strabismus. This study investigates the use of different OCT machines to image rectus muscle insertions pre-, intra-, and post-operatively in pediatric strabismus patients. The OCT machines used in the study were a Bioptigen (Leica Microsystems Inc., Buffalo Grove, IL, USA), Spectralis HRA+OCT with Anterior Segment ...

      Probing dynamic processes in the eye at multiple spatial and temporal scales with multimodal full field OCT
      We describe recent technological progress in multimodal en face full-field optical coherence tomography that has allowed detection of slow and fast dynamic processes in the eye. We show that by combining static, dynamic and fluorescence contrasts we can achieve label-free high-resolution imaging of the retina and anterior eye with temporal resolution from milliseconds to several hours, allowing us to probe biological activity at subcellular scales inside 3D bulk tissue. Our ...

      Cellular-scale evaluation of induced photoreceptor degeneration in the living primate eye
      Progress is needed in developing animal models of photoreceptor degeneration and evaluating such models with longitudinal, noninvasive techniques. We employ confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and high-resolution retinal imaging to noninvasively observe the retina of non-human primates with induced photoreceptor degeneration. Photoreceptors were imaged at the single-cell scale in three modalities of adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopy: traditional confocal reflectance, indicative of waveguiding; a non-confocal offset aperture ...

      LEARNING TO SEGMENT CORNEAL TISSUE INTERFACES IN OCT IMAGES
      Accurate and repeatable delineation of corneal tissue interfaces is necessary for surgical planning during anterior segment interventions, such as Keratoplasty. Designing an approach to identify interfaces, which generalizes to datasets acquired from different Optical Coherence Tomographic (OCT) scanners, is paramount. In this paper, we present a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based framework called CorNet that can accurately segment three corneal interfaces across datasets obtained with different scan settings from different ...
