Automatic segmentation of layers in chorio-retinal complex using Graph-based method for ultra-speed 1.7 MHz wide field swept source FDML optical coherence tomography.

The posterior segment of the human eye complex contains two discrete microstructure and vasculature network systems, namely, the retina and choroid. We present a single segmentation framework technique for segmenting the entire layers present in the chorio-retinal complex of the human eye using optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. This automatic program is based on the graph theory method.

Albumin-PEG-Based Biomaterial for Laser-Tissue Soldering and Its Real-Time Monitoring With Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography.

Background And Objectives: The study presents a noninvasive, real-time monitoring technique for the cross-sectional imaging of the laser-tissue soldering process with a swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) system. The study also aims at performing a comparative study of the laser-tissue soldering (LTS) process using optimized compositions of albumin as solder biomaterials.

Study Design/materials And Methods: The experimental study was conducted both ex vivo and in vivo to assess the superiority of the LTS process over conventional methods using a noninvasive imaging tool.

Real-time assessment and characterization of immobilized lipase onto a natural matrix and qualitative reaction kinetic studies using swept-source optical coherence tomography.

The current study presents a method based on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) for non-destructive, real-time analysis and portrayal of immobilization efficacy for lipase on a natural matrix namely, eggshell. Subsequently, qualitative biochemical reaction kinetics of immobilized lipase was also studied. Successful immobilization of lipase on eggshell was confirmed by the presence of a clear peak in 'A' scan of OCT image.
