Clinical significance of B-scan averaging with SD-OCT.
Averaging multiple scans is a potential advantage of optical coherence tomography. The authors evaluate the qualitative benefits of B-scan averaging on the visualization of outer retinal structures. A retrospective analysis was performed on Cirrus OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) B-scans from 1 eye of 35 patients referred to the imaging unit who underwent three types of scan acquisitions: n...
متن کاملHigh speed frequency swept light source for Fourier domain OCT at 20 kHz A-scan rate
We demonstrate a high-speed tunable, continuous wave laser source for Fourier domain OCT. The laser source is based on a fiber coupled, semiconductor optical amplifier and a tunable ultrahigh finesse, fiber Fabry Perot filter for frequency tuning. The light source provides frequency scan rates of up to 20,000 sweeps per second over a wavelength range of >70 nm FWHM at 1330 nm, yielding an axial...
متن کاملEnhanced optical coherence tomography imaging by multiple scan averaging.
AIMS To describe a method for computerised alignment and averaging of sequences in optical coherence tomography (OCT) B-scans and to present selected clinical observations based on the resulting improvement in retinal imaging. METHODS A methodological study and retrospective investigation of selected cases. Five human subjects were included, one healthy subject, two patients with central sero...
متن کاملPhase-coherent repetition rate multiplication of a mode-locked laser from 40 MHz to 1 GHz by injection locking.
We have used injection locking to multiply the repetition rate of a passively mode-locked femtosecond fiber laser from 40 MHz to 1 GHz while preserving optical phase coherence between the master laser and the slave output. The system is implemented almost completely in fiber and incorporates gain and passive saturable absorption. The slave repetition rate is set to a rational harmonic of the ma...
متن کاملEfficient Downscaling of JPEG-Compressed Images
We introduce an efficient downscaling methods with arbitrary downscaling factors for images that are transformed to DCT blocks as in the compression standard JPEG. Our hybrid approach combines the low complexity of DCT domain downscaling with the high image quality of B-spline based downscaling methods. A scalable parameter allows to adjust the trade-off between computational costs and image qu...
