Algorithms for automated oximetry along the retinal vascular tree from dual-wavelength fundus images.

We present an automated method to perform accurate, rapid, and objective measurement of the blood oxygen saturation over each segment of the retinal vascular hierarchy from dual-wavelength fundus images. Its speed and automation (2 s per entire image versus 20 s per segment for manual methods) enables detailed level-by-level measurements over wider areas. An automated tracing algorithm is used ...

A Microcolorimetric Method for Measuring the Oxygen Saturation of Blood

For purposes of measuring oxygen saturation in the arterial blood of newly born infants (1) it became necessary to develop a rapid and reasonably accurate method for small blood samples. It was further necessary to demonstrate that cutaneous blood samples could be considered identical with specimens drawn directly from an artery. The present communication describes the calorimetric method evolv...

Validation of human whole blood oximetry, using a hyperspectral fundus camera with a model eye.

PURPOSE To assess the accuracy of human blood oximetry measurements in a model eye with a hyperspectral fundus camera. METHODS Seven human whole blood samples (two arterial, five venous) were obtained, the oxygen saturations measured with a CO oximeter, and the samples inserted into quartz tubes with internal diameters of 100 and 150 μm. The tubes (n = 20; ten 100 μm and ten 150 μm) were plac...

A tri state mechanism for oxygen release in fish hemoglobin: Using Barbus sharpeyi as a model

Hemoglobin is a porphyrin containing protein with an a2b2 tetrameric structure and like other porphyrin compounds shows spectral behavior of species specific characteristics. Researchers tend to relate bands in the hemoglobin spectra to certain structural and/or functional features. Given the fact that hemoglobin is the main oxygen carrier in animals functioning through the Oxy«Deoxy equilibriu...

Pulse Oximetry Overestimates Oxygen Saturation in COPD.

BACKGROUND Measurement of oxygen saturation with a handheld pulse oximeter is widely practiced as a surrogate to invasive arterial blood gas analysis. Oxygen saturation is an important parameter in cases of COPD, but there are insufficient data on the role of pulse oximetry in patients with COPD, moreso in diseases across its spectrum, such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema. We assessed the p...

An oxygen consuming phantom for simulating oxygen perfusion in tissue using F MRI oximetry

Introduction Tumor hypoxia is well known to reduce cancer treatment efficacy [1]. Hypoxic tumor cells, which have decreased oxygen levels (pO2), are more resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Dissolved oxygen influences the F magnetic resonance relaxation times of perfluorocarbons [2]. This property has been used in animal studies to image tumor oxygenation [3]. However, validation of pO2...
