this paper presents a new three-dimensional curvelet transform based dictionary learning for automatic segmentation of intraretinalcysts, most relevant prognostic biomarker in neovascular age-related macular degeneration, from 3d spectral-domain optical coherencetomography (sd-oct) images. in particular, we focus on the spectralis sd-oct (heidelberg engineering, heidelberg, germany) system, and...

advances in optical coherence tomography have enabled a better appreciation of the role of pathologic choroidal changes in a variety of retinal disease. a “pachychoroid” (pachy-[prefix]: thick) is defined as an abnormal and permanent increase in choroidal thickness often showing dilated choroidal vessels and other structural alterations of the normal choroidal architecture. central serous c...

We present an experimental demonstration of quantum-optical coherence tomography. The technique makes use of an entangled twin-photon light source to carry out axial optical sectioning. It is compared to conventional optical coherence tomography. The immunity of the quantum version to dispersion, as well as a factor of 2 enhancement in resolution, is experimentally demonstrated.

Optical coherence tomography is a new technology that provides an atraumatic "optical biopsy" providing both anatomical and possible histopathologic results. It has only recently been incorporated into the urological field. This paper highlights previous and prospective advances of optical coherence tomography in urology and its potential application in robotic urologic surgery.

BACKGROUND A modality capable of imaging the female reproductive tract, at or near the cellular level, could lead to the detection of diseases at earlier stages than currently possible. Optical coherence tomography achieves high resolutions in the cellular range (4-20 microm) and could accomplish that level of detection. METHOD Optical coherence tomography imaging of gynecologic tissue was st...

Aim – To compare the results of optic disc analysis using optical coherence tomography, fundus photography and stereoscopic biomicroscopy. Materials & Methods – A comparative, observational case series and interobserver variability study in which 2 groups of patients were analysed by all the 3 methods. One group had primary open angle glaucoma patients and the other group were patients undergoi...

RATIONALE To investigate malignant hypertension ocular lesions with swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). PATIENT CONCERNS Visual loss due to malignant hypertension. DIAGNOSES Hypertensive chorioretinopathy. INTERVENTIONS Patients were thoroughly examined on presentation and 30 days after their first visit, with swept-sour...
