purpose: to measure peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (rnfl) thickness in normal human eyes by optical coherence tomography (oct). methods: eighty-one eyes of 45 normal participants were studied. each person underwent a complete ophthalmic examinations, including measurement of visual aquity and intraocular pressure and evaluation of the anterior segment, optic disc, and retinal nerve fib...

Assessment of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer and macular thickness can be determined in ophthalmology using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Decreased nerve fiber layer thickness and macular ganglion cell thickness in optic nerve ischemia have been correlated with visual field loss. OCT allows deep optic nerve head evaluation which helps understand pathophysiology of diseases.  Furtherm...

This paper shows the technique of optical coherence tomography in the frequency domain Handbook of Optical Coherence Tomography, MarcelDekker. Simulation of polarized OCT signal is performed using vector approach V. V. Tuchin, Handbook of Coherent Domain Optical Methods: Biomedical Diagnostics. In a little over two decades, optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become an indispensable imaging ...

purpose: to determine peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (rnfl) thickness by three-dimensional optical coherence tomography (3d-oct) in a normal iranian population and to evaluate the concordance of these measurements with those obtained by the second generation of optical coherence tomography (oct ii). methods: in a cross-sectional observational study, 96 normal iranian subjects 20-53 yea...

optical coherence tomography (oct) uses the spatial and temporal coherence properties of optical waves backscattered from a tissue sample to form an image. an inherent characteristic of coherent imaging is the presence of speckle noise. in this study we use a new ensemble framework which is a combination of several multi-layer perceptron (mlp) neural networks to denoise oct images. the noise is...

Introduction: According to the literature, optical coherence tomography (OCT) can be used measure radiation absorbed dose. This study was carried out to design a computed tomography system for the calculation of absorbed dose and optimization of dose delivery in radiotherapy using gel dosimeters. Material and Methods: An advanced charge-coupled device based OCT system was developed in laborator...

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...

purpose: to describe the association between optic disc traction and non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (naion). methods: eighty three eyes of 83 patients with naion were evaluated by optical coherence tomography (oct) for detecting vitreous adhesion to the optic nerve head with separation from adjacent retina (partial posterior vitreous detachment). those who were negative for su...
