Visible light OCT improves imaging through a highly scattering retinal pigment epithelial wall

Vivek J. Srinivasan is Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of California Davis. Dr. Srinivasan received his B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University, and my PhD in EECS (bioelectrical engineering area) at MIT. His lab recently moved to the UC Davis Biomedical Engineering Department from the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging in the Department of Radiology at MGH. The lab has developed a range of optical tools for diagnostics and basic science applications, focusing in particular on the quantitative study of organ physiology at the microscopic scale. Recent advances pioneered by the laboratory include all-optical methods of blood flow quantification, imaging of cytoarchitecture and myeloarchitecture with intrinsic contrast, and statistical methods and models of capillary speed quantification. They have applied these tools to study a wide range of questions, from the basis of neurovascular coupling to evolution of injury and recovery in ischemic stroke.
