Abstract:

Background: optical coherence tomography is one of the most valuable imaging techniques in the evaluation of macula. Objective: to investigate the repeatability and reproducibility of OCT  in measuring the macular thickness in normal eyes before and after pupil dilation. Methods: A total of 44 eyes were enrolled. All subjects underwent macular thickness measurement using the Cirrus SD-OCT machine. Results: The mean macular thickness before and after pupil dilation was statistically significant in the nasal quadrant of the outer 6 mm ring (N2) and the inferior quadrant of the outer 6 mm ring (I2) (p=0.001). Conclusion: Since the absolute value of the mean difference between the three measurements in N2 and I2 regions was statistically significant, using a single method (i.e., applying the eye drop or not) is preferable for follow-ups in cases that the measurements are needed within 3 to 6 mm in center of the macula.

Degenerate Four Wave Mixing in Photonic Crystal Fibers

In this study, Four Wave Mixing (FWM) characteristics in photonic crystal fibers are investigated. The effect of channel spacing, phase mismatching, and fiber length on FWM efficiency have been studied. The variation of idler frequency which obtained by this technique with pumping and signal wavelengths has been discussed. The effect of fiber dispersion has been taken into account; we obtain th...

Calibration of fundus images using spectral domain optical coherence tomography.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Measurements performed on fundus images using current software are not accurate. Accurate measurements can be obtained only by calibrating a fundus camera using measurements between fixed retinal landmarks, such as the dimensions of the optic nerve, or by relying on a calibrated model eye provided by a reading center. However, calibrated spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) cou...
