      OCT-Angiography as a reliable prognostic tool in laser-treated proliferative diabetic retinopathy: The RENOCTA Study
      Purpose: To quantitatively assess retinal neovascularizations (RNVs) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) before and after photocoagulative laser treatment (PLT) using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCT-A). Methods: Consecutive patients with PDR were examined with fluorescein angiography (FA) and OCT-A before and after PLT. Baseline and after-treatment FA images were quantitatively analyzed to assess both the RNVs area and leakage area. On OCT-A RNVs area, vascular perfusion density (VPD), vessel length density ...

      BG-CNN: A Boundary Guided Convolutional Neural Network for Corneal Layer Segmentation from Optical Coherence Tomography
      Precise segmentation of corneal layers depicted on optical coherence tomography (OCT) images plays an important role in detecting corneal diseases, such as keratoconus and dry eye. In this study, we present a boundary guided convolutional neural network (BG-CNN) to extract different corneal layers. The developed network uses three convolutional blocks to construct two network modules derived from the classical U-Net network. This network was trained based on a dataset consisting ...

      Measuring 3D Optic Nerve Head Deformations using Digital Volume Correlation of in vivo Optical Coherence Tomography Data (Thesis)
      The optic nerve head (ONH), located in the back of the eye, is a critical site in understanding the pathophysiology of glaucoma. However, longitudinal changes of the ONH as disease develops have not been well characterized. Our goal was to develop an improved tool to quantify these changes in an in vivo monkey model of glaucoma. Longitudinal spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of the ONH was performed every other ...

      Assessment Of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy Depicted On Color Fundus Photographs Using Deep Learning
      Purpose: To investigate whether and to what extent central serous chorioretinopathy ( CSC ) depicted on color fundus photographs can be assessed using deep learning technology. Methods: We collected a total of 2,504 fundus images acquired on different subjects. We verified the CSC status of these images using their corresponding optical coherence tomography images. A total of 1,329 images depicted CSC . These images were preprocessed and normalized. This resulting data ...

      Curved-field optical coherence tomography: large-field imaging of human corneal cells and nerves
      Cell-resolution optical imaging methods, such as confocal microscopy and full-field optical coherence tomography, capture flat optical sections of the sample. If the sample is curved, the optical field sections through several sample layers, and the view of each layer is reduced. Here we present curved-field optical coherence tomography, capable of capturing optical sections of arbitrary curvature. We test the device on a challenging task of imaging the human cornea in ...

      Optical coherence tomography angiography findings of fellow eye of proliferative macular telangiectasia type 2: Long term study
      Purpose: To report the characteristics of non-proliferative fellow eyes in patients with unilateral proliferative macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel). Methods: This was a multicenter, retrospective study and included fellow eyes of eyes with subretinal neovascular membrane (SRNVM). Multimodal imaging including fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography (OCTA) was performed. OCT and OCTA measurements included central macular thickness (CMT), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area ...

      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.
