Optical coherence computed tomography
A time-resolved optical tomography, optical coherence computed tomography, is proposed to bridge the gap between diffuse optical tomography and optical coherence tomography. Both ballistic and multiple-scattered photons are measured at multiple source-detection positions by low-coherence interferometry providing a temporal resolution smaller than 100 fs. A light-tissue interaction model was est...
متن کاملOptical coherence tomography of the newborn airway.
OBJECTIVES Acquired subglottic stenosis in a newborn is often associated with prolonged endotracheal intubation. This condition is generally diagnosed during operative endoscopy after airway injury has occurred. Unfortunately, endoscopy is unable to characterize the submucosal changes observed in such airway injuries. Other modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, an...
متن کاملRetinal assessment using optical coherence tomography.
Over the 15 years since the original description, optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become one of the key diagnostic technologies in the ophthalmic subspecialty areas of retinal diseases and glaucoma. The reason for the widespread adoption of this technology originates from at least two properties of the OCT results: on the one hand, the results are accessible to the non-specialist where m...
متن کاملImaging of the pediatric airway using optical coherence tomography.
OBJECTIVES Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an imaging modality that uses a broadband light source to produce high-resolution cross-sectional images in living tissue (8-20 microm). A prospective study of normal, benign, and pathologic tissues in the pediatric airway was conducted to assess the utility of OCT technology in characterizing the microanatomy of the pediatric upper aerodigestive...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography and Corpus Callosum Index in Cognitive Assessment of Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease of central nervous system. Different approaches have been developed to study MS progression and cognitive dysfunction as the major symptom of the disease. The current study compared Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Corpus Callosum Index (CCI) for the early evaluation of cognitive dysfunction in MS patients. Objectives: T...
