The Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is the first optical sensor in geostationary orbit for monitoring the ocean environment around the Korean Peninsula. This paper discusses on-orbit modulation transfer function (MTF) estimation with the pulse-source method and its compensation results for the GOCI. Additionally, by analyzing the relationship between the MTF compensation effect and the accuracy of the secondary ocean product, we confirmed the optimal MTF compensation parameter for enhancing image quality without variation in the accuracy. In this study, MTF assessment was performed using a natural target because the GOCI system has a spatial resolution of 500 m. For MTF compensation with the Wiener filter, we fitted a point spread function with a Gaussian curve controlled by a standard deviation value (σ). After a parametric analysis for finding the optimal degradation model, the σ value of 0.4 was determined to be an optimal indicator. Finally, the MTF value was enhanced from 0.1645 to 0.2152 without degradation of the accuracy of the ocean color product. Enhanced GOCI images by MTF compensation are expected to recognize small-scale ocean products in coastal areas with sharpened geometric performance.

Endoscopes are crucial for assisting in surgery and disease diagnosis, including the early detection of cancer. The effective use of endoscopes relies on their optical performance, which can be characterized with a series of metrics such as resolution, vital for revealing anatomical details. The modulation transfer function (MTF) is a key metric for evaluating endoscope resolution.

Article Synopsis
  • Anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies are effective treatments for preventing migraines, but patients show varied responses, influenced by specific clinical factors.
  • A study involving over 5,800 patients identified key predictors of treatment response at 6 months, including older age, unilateral pain, absence of depression, fewer monthly migraine days, and lower disability levels.
  • The findings highlight that higher migraine frequency and greater baseline disability negatively impact treatment effectiveness, which can inform future patient management and reimbursement policies.

Adaptive optics visual simulation is a powerful tool for vision testing and evaluation. However, the existing instruments either have fixed tabletop configurations or, being wearable, only offer the correction of defocus. This paper proposes a novel head-mounted adaptive optics visual simulator that can measure and modify complex ocular aberrations in real-time.

Background And Objectives: Racial disparities exist in both neurologic and obstetric populations, underscoring the importance of evaluating pregnancy outcomes in diverse women with multiple sclerosis (MS). The objective of this multicenter retrospective study was to compare pregnancy care and outcomes between Black and Hispanic (underrepresented) and White women with MS.

Methods: Demographic and clinical data were extracted from medical records of 9 US MS centers for women with MS/clinically isolated syndrome who delivered live births between 2010 and 2021.
