We report a newly developed multifunctional 1050 nm spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) system working at 147 kHz A-scan rate for posterior eye imaging. It is demonstrated through <i>in-vivo</i> experiments that this system delivers not only superior performance of posterior eye structural imaging but also detailed visualization of microcirculation network in retina. The choroid of the eye with either myopic or normal conditions can clearly be visualized through the entire scan ...[more]

Project description:We report a newly developed high speed 1050nm spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) system for imaging posterior segment of human eye. The system is capable of an axial resolution at ~10 µm in air, an imaging depth of 6.1 mm in air, a system sensitivity fall-off at ~6 dB/3mm and an imaging speed of 120,000 A-scans per second. We experimentally demonstrate the system's capability to perform phase-resolved imaging of dynamic blood flow within retina, indicating high phase stability of the SDOCT system. Finally, we show an example that uses this newly developed system to image posterior segment of human eye with a large view of view (10 × 9 mm(2)), providing detailed visualization of microstructural features from anterior retina to posterior choroid. The demonstrated system parameters and imaging performances are comparable to those that a typical 1 µm swept source OCT would deliver for retinal imaging.

Project description:PurposeTo assess the accuracy of macular spectral-domain OCT in detecting complete posterior vitreous detachment (PVD).DesignEvaluation of diagnostic test or technology using a retrospective comparative study.ParticipantsOne hundred seventy-five eyes in 175 patients (111 women and 64 men; mean age, 65 years) with preoperative OCT within 90 days of vitrectomy.MethodsPosterior vitreous detachment status on preoperative macular OCT was compared with PVD determination during vitrectomy. Attached vitreous was identified on OCT by visualizing the posterior vitreous cortex or premacular bursa. Complete PVD was identified by the absence of these findings and considered a positive outcome for the purpose of analysis.Main outcome measuresSensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of macular OCT for detection of complete PVD compared with findings at surgery.ResultsOf the 38 eyes graded as showing complete PVD on OCT, 20 eyes were found to have pre-existing PVD at the time of surgery (true-positive results), and 18 eyes were found to have attached vitreous at the time of surgery (false-positive results). Of the 137 eyes graded as showing attached vitreous on OCT, 129 eyes had attached vitreous at the time of surgery (true-negative results), and 8 eyes had pre-existing PVD at the time of surgery (false-negative results). The sensitivity of OCT for detecting complete PVD was 71% and the specificity was 88%. In the study population, the positive predictive value of an OCT scan showing complete PVD was 53%, whereas the negative predictive value of an OCT scan showing attached vitreous was 94%.ConclusionsIf the premacular bursa or posterior vitreous cortex are visualized on macular OCT, an accurate determination of attached vitreous can be made. The diagnosis of complete PVD by macular OCT is less accurate and requires ultrasound.

Project description:Vocal fold vibration is vital in voice production and the correct pitch of speech. We have developed a high speed functional optical coherence tomography (OCT) system with a center wavelength of 1050 nm and an imaging speed of 100,000 A-lines per second. We imaged the vibration of an ex-vivo swine vocal fold. At an imaging speed of 100 frames per second, we demonstrated high quality vocal fold images during vibration. Functional information, such as vibration frequency and vibration amplitude, was obtained by analyzing the tissue surface during vibration. The axial direction velocity distribution in the cross-sectional images of the vibrating vocal folds was obtained with the Doppler OCT. The quantitative transverse direction velocity distribution in the cross-sectional images was obtained with the Doppler variance images.

Project description:PurposeTo demonstrate ultrahigh-speed swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) at 1.68 million A-scans/s for choroidal imaging in normal and diseased eyes over a ?60° field of view. To investigate and correlate wide-field three-dimensional (3D) choroidal thickness (ChT) and vascular patterns using ChT maps and coregistered high-definition en face images extracted from a single densely sampled Megahertz-OCT (MHz-OCT) dataset.MethodsHigh-definition, ?60° wide-field 3D datasets consisting of 2088 × 1024 A-scans were acquired using a 1.68 MHz prototype SS-OCT system at 1050 nm based on a Fourier-domain mode-locked laser. Nine subjects (nine eyes) with various chorioretinal diseases or without ocular pathology are presented. Coregistered ChT maps, choroidal summation maps, and depth-resolved en face images referenced to either the retinal pigment epithelium or the choroidal-scleral interface were generated using manual segmentation.ResultsWide-field ChT maps showed a large inter- and intraindividual variance in peripheral and central ChT. In only four of the nine eyes, the location with the largest ChT was coincident with the fovea. The anatomy of the large lumen vessels of the outer choroid seems to play a major role in determining the global ChT pattern. Focal ChT changes with large thickness gradients were observed in some eyes.ConclusionsDifferent ChT and vascular patterns could be visualized over ?60° in patients for the first time using OCT. Due to focal ChT changes, a high density of thickness measurements may be favorable. High-definition depth-resolved en face images are complementary to cross sections and thickness maps and enhance the interpretation of different ChT patterns.

Project description:PurposeTo analyze the effect of induced astigmatism on en-face spectral-domain optical coherence tomography angiography quantitative metrics.DesignProspective crossover study.MethodsNormal eyes without astigmatism and with 0.75, 1.75, and 2.75 diopters (D) of with-the-rule (WTR) astigmatism were imaged using a 3 × 3-mm scan pattern SD-OCTA CIRRUS 5000 HD-OCT with AngioPlex (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA, USA). Quantitative parameters, including foveal avascular zone metrics, parafoveal vessel length density (VD), and perfusion density (PD) were corrected for magnification secondary to axial length and analyzed. Univariate linear regressions were performed within each eye to correlate quantitative metrics to the level of an induced astigmatic cylinder.ResultsFifteen eyes from 15 patients were imaged. Every 1-D increase in induced WTR astigmatism was associated with a statistically significant decrease in VD and PD within all Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study inner ring quadrants; however, especially more so nasally (VD: 0.63; P < .001; PD: 0.0089; P = .001). For every 1-D increase in induced astigmatism, the resulting decrease in the inner ring superior quadrant was 12% greater for VD and 16% greater for PD versus that in the inferior quadrant. The resulting decrease in the inner ring nasal quadrant was 40% greater for VD and 48% greater for PD versus that in the temporal quadrant.ConclusionsIncreasing levels of induced WTR astigmatism correlated with globally diminishing VD and PD, was more symmetrical for vertical than horizontal quadrants, and was most pronounced nasally. This may be due to a high prevalence of horizontally oriented vessels nasally and the horizontal optical defocus induced by WTR astigmatism.

Project description:An optical switch was implemented in the reference arm of an extended depth SD-OCT system to sequentially acquire OCT images at different depths into the eye ranging from the cornea to the retina. A custom-made accommodation module was coupled with the delivery of the OCT system to provide controlled step stimuli of accommodation and disaccommodation that preserve ocular alignment. The changes in the lens shape were imaged and ocular distances were dynamically measured during accommodation and disaccommodation. The system is capable of dynamic in vivo imaging of the entire anterior segment and eye-length measurement during accommodation in real-time.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies proposed possible applications of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) measurements in prognosticating pathologies observed in overweight/obesity, including ocular, vascular, and neurologic consequences. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the changes in the in SD-OCT measurements of the patients with higher body mass index (BMI) compared to normal weight individuals.Materials and methodsWe conducted a systematic search on PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. The search results underwent two-phase title/abstract and full-text screenings. We then analyzed SD-OCT measurements differences in patients with high BMI and controls, and performed meta-regression, sub-group analysis, quality assessment, and publication bias assessment. The measurements included macular thickness, cup to disc ratio, ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GC-IPL) and its sub-sectors, RNFL and peripapillary RNFL (pRNFL) and their sub-layers, and choroidal thickness and its sub-sectors.Results19 studies were included in this meta-analysis accounting for 1813 individuals, 989 cases and 824 controls. There was an overall trend towards decreased thickness in high BMI patients, but only two measurements reached statistical significance: temporal retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) (Standardized mean difference (SMD): -0.33, 95% confidence interval (CI): -0.53 to -0.14, p<0.01) and the choroidal region 1.0 mm nasal to fovea (SMD: -0.38, 95% CI: -0.60 to -0.16, p<0.01).ConclusionSome ocular layers are thinner in patients with higher BMI than the controls. These SD-OCT measurements might correlate with adverse events related to increased body weight and have prognostic abilities. As SD-OCT is a robust, rapid and non-invasive tool, future guidelines and studies are needed to evaluate the possibility of their integration into care of the patients with obesity.

Project description:PurposeTo compare the ability of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), optic nerve head (ONH), and macular measurements to detect preperimetric glaucomatous damage.MethodsThe study included 142 eyes from 91 patients suspected of having the disease based on the appearance of the optic disc. All eyes had normal visual fields before the imaging session. Forty-eight eyes with progressive glaucomatous damage were included in the preperimetric glaucoma group. Ninety-four eyes without any evidence of progressive glaucomatous damage and followed untreated for 12.8 ± 3.6 years were used as controls. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) were calculated to summarize diagnostic accuracies of the parameters.ResultsThe three RNFL parameters with the largest AUCs were average RNFL thickness (0.89 ± 0.03), inferior hemisphere average thickness (0.87 ± 0.03), and inferior quadrant average thickness (0.85 ± 0.03). The three ONH parameters with the largest AUCs were vertical cup-to-disc ratio (0.74 ± 0.04), rim area (0.72 ± 0.05), and rim volume (0.72 ± 0.05). The three macular parameters with the largest AUCs were GCC average thickness (0.79 ± 0.04), GCC inferior thickness (0.79 ± 0.05), and GCC superior thickness (0.76 ± 0.05). Average RNFL thickness performed better than vertical cup-to-disc ratio (0.89 vs. 0.74; P = 0.007) and GCC average thickness (0.89 vs. 0.79; P = 0.015).ConclusionsSDOCT RNFL measurements performed better than ONH and macular measurements for detecting preperimetric glaucomatous damage in a cohort of glaucoma suspects.

Project description:Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) and balloon-based catheters have furthered the potential of OCT as a real-time surveillance tool for Barrett's esophagus (BE). However, a balloon catheter, which expands the esophagus and centers the catheter, applies direct pressure on the esophagus. This may affect the tissue appearance and the ability to detect dysplasia in BE. To study this effect, we propose a double-balloon catheter to allow imaging with and without balloon-tissue contact. A system design based on a spectral-domain OCT platform is reported and validated by acquisition of high quality, volumetric images of swine esophagus in vivo.

Project description:PURPOSE:To determine optimal objective, machine-derived variables and variable combinations from Scheimpflug and spectral-domain (SD) OCT imaging to distinguish the clinically unaffected eye in patients with asymmetric keratoconus (AKC) from a normal control population. DESIGN:Retrospective case-control study. PARTICIPANTS:Thirty clinically unaffected eyes with no physical findings on slit-lamp examination, no definitive abnormalities on corneal imaging, and corrected distance acuity of 20/20 or better from 30 patients with highly AKC eyes and 60 eyes from 60 normal control patients who had undergone uneventful LASIK with at least 2 years of stable follow-up (controls). METHODS:Scheimpflug and SD OCT imaging were obtained in all eyes, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to determine area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity for each machine-derived variable and variable combination. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Distinguishing AKC eyes from controls as determined by AUC, sensitivity, and specificity. RESULTS:No individual machine-derived metric from Scheimpflug or SD OCT technology yielded an AUC higher than 0.75. Combining 5 Scheimpflug metrics (index height decentration [IHD], index vertical asymmetry [IVA], pachymetry apex, inferior-superior value, and Ambrosio's Relational Thickness Maximum [ARTmax]) yielded the best Scheimpflug results (AUC 0.86, sensitivity 83%, specificity 83%). Combining 11 SD OCT thickness metrics (minimum-median, temporal outer, superior nasal outer, minimum, epithelium minimum-maximum, epithelial standard deviation, superior inner, superior outer, superior temporal outer, superior nasal inner, central) yielded the best SD OCT results (AUC 0.96, sensitivity 89%, specificity 89%). Combining 13 total Scheimpflug/SD OCT metrics yielded the best results overall (AUC 1.0, sensitivity 100%, specificity 100%). The most impactful variables in combined models included epithelial thickness variability and total focal corneal thickness variability from SD OCT and anterior curvature and topometric indices from Scheimpflug technology. No posterior corneal metrics were impactful in modeling. CONCLUSIONS:Individual machine-derived metrics from Scheimpflug and SD OCT imaging poorly distinguished normal eyes from minimally affected eyes from patients with highly AKC. Combined SD OCT metrics performed better than combined Scheimpflug metrics. Combining anterior curvature and asymmetry indices from Scheimpflug with regional total thickness and epithelial thickness variability metrics from SD OCT clearly distinguished the 2 populations. Posterior corneal indices were not useful in distinguishing populations.
