Current capabilities and challenges for optical coherence tomography as a high-impact cardiovascular imaging modality.
Impact, the ability to have a long-lasting significant influence in the field, has become the focus not only of the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation but also of science in general. An article in this issue, “Optical Coherent Tomographic Analysis of In-Stent Neoatherosclerosis After Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation,” deals with 2 high-impact areas of cardiology: e...
متن کاملForward-imaging instruments for optical coherence tomography.
We discuss the design and implementation of forward-imaging instruments for optical coherence tomography (OCT), which require the delivery, scanning, and collection of single-spatial-mode optical radiation. A hand-held surgical probe for use in open surgery can provide cross-sectional images of subsurface tissue before surgical incisions are made. A rigid laparoscope for minimally invasive surg...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography for Ophthalmic Imaging
Understanding the etiology and evolution of the vulnerable coronary plaque is important for the early detection, treatment, and prevention of coronary artery disease. Intravascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables imaging of the coronary arteries in vivo with sufficient resolution to accurately differentiate arterial pathology, however, the clinical utility of this technology has been...
متن کاملDual modality instrument for simultaneous optical coherence tomography imaging and fluorescence spectroscopy.
We develop a dual-modality device that combines the anatomical imaging capabilities of optical coherence tomography (OCT) with the functional capabilities of laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy. OCT provides cross-sectional images of tissue structure to a depth of up to 2 mm with approximately 10-microm resolution. LIF spectroscopy provides histochemical information in the form of emi...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography Angiography as an Imaging Modality for Evaluation of Diabetic Macular Edema
359 Diabetic retinopathy remains a leading cause of blindness worldwide in patients aged 20–64 years.[1] Diabetic macular edema (DME) threating or involving the fovea is a common etiology for vision loss. Traditionally, treatment methods have been guided by contact and non‐contact slit lamp biomicroscopy, fluorescein angiography and fundus stereo photography. [1] Fluorescein angiography (FA) is...
