Response of capillaries and small arterioles to full-field flicker is not dependent on local ganglion cell thickness.
Biomed Opt Express

School of Optometry, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, USA.
To measure the influence of ganglion cell layer (GCL) thickness on the changes in size and red blood cell (RBC) flow in small retinal vessels evoked by full-field flicker. We used a dual-beam adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope to image 11 healthy young controls in two retinal areas with significantly different GCL thicknesses. All capillaries and arterioles of the superficial vascular plexus were responsive to the flicker stimulation.

Radiation therapy (RT) is widely used for cancer treatment but is found with side effects of radiation dermatitis and fibrosis thereby calling for timely assessment. Nevertheless, current clinical assessment methods are found to be subjective, prone to bias, and accompanied by variability. There is, therefore, an unmet clinical need to explore a new assessment technique, ideally portable and affordable, making it accessible to less developed regions too.

Center for Optics, Photonics and Lasers, Department of Physics, Engineering Physics and Optics, Université Laval, 2375 Rue de la Terrasse, Québec, Québec G1V 0A6, Canada.
A miniature electrically tuneable liquid crystal component is used to steer light from -1° to +1° and then to inject into a simple tapered fiber. This allows the generation of various propagation modes, their leakage, and selective illumination of the surrounding medium at different depth levels without using mechanical movements nor deformation. The performance of the device is characterized in a reference fluorescence medium (Rhodamine 6G) as well as in a mouse brain (medullary reticular formation and mesencephalic locomotor regions) during in-vivo experiments as a proof of concept.

An intraocular lens (IOL) replaces the natural crystalline lens during cataract surgery, and although the vast majority of implants have simple optics, "advanced technology" IOLs have multifocal and extended depth of focus (EDOF) properties. Optical concepts are evaluated here, with image contrast, focal range, and unwanted visual phenomena being the primary concerns. Visual phenomena with earlier bifocal diffractive lenses led to alternative diffractive designs (trifocals, etc.

Conventional x-ray radiography relies on attenuation differences in the object, which often results in poor contrast in soft tissues. X-ray phase imaging has the potential to produce higher contrast but can be difficult to utilize. Instead of grating-based techniques, analyzer-based imaging, also known as diffraction enhanced imaging (DEI), uses a monochromator crystal with an analyzer crystal after the object.
