Book Ophthalmic Imaging Applications with Optical Coherence Tomography and Graphics Processing Units

Download or read book Ophthalmic Imaging Applications with Optical Coherence Tomography and Graphics Processing Units written by Kevin Siu Kwun Wong and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ophthalmology, Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is becoming one of the dominant imaging technologies for both clinical diagnostics and vision research. In a previous bachelor's thesis prior to this project, we described a highly optimized Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) implementation of the Fourier Domain (FD)OCT processing and visualization pipeline that was capable of real-time volume rendering at video rate.In this thesis, we describe three applications that build upon the GPU-based processing software: Speckle Variance (sv)OCT, Compressive Sample (CS)OCT, and Wavefront Sensorless Adaptive Optics (WSAO)OCT. We first demonstrate that svOCT can be a powerful fundus imaging technique for visualizing the retinal vasculature network, which may be comparable to the gold-standard technique called Fluorescein Angiography (FA). The strongest attribute of svOCT is that it bypasses the use of intravenous fluorescein for vascular contrast enhancement, and can be highly suitable for longitudinal monitoring of patients with vasculature-related pathologies in the retina. In our second application, we present a GPU-accelerated CS-OCT processing pipeline. The principle behind CS-OCT is to take advantage of the redundancy in biological structures, such as the retina, for reconstructing volumes acquired at a sampling density below the Nyquist criterion; the purpose is to justify decreasing volume acquisition time by significantly subsampling the datasets. In our final application, we present a WSAO-OCT system as a novel technique for cellular resolution imaging of the human photoreceptor layer. This technique leverages on the ultrahigh speed processing rates in our GPU-based processing software in order to produce a real-time intensity-based merit function for en face image quality optimization.

Book Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography of the Eye

Download or read book Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography of the Eye written by David Huang and published by Kugler Publications. This book was released on 2024-01-08 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has undergone tremendous growth since its first commercial introduction in 2014. Because it provides injection-free, capillary-resolution, 3-dimensional angiography of the retina and choroid, OCTA is likely to overtake fluorescein as the most important angiographic imaging technique in the eye. Nearly all manufacturers of ophthalmic OCT now offer OCTA products. A PubMed search now yields over 5700 articles on OCTA and related terms. Clinical investigators have already found a use for OCTA in almost every category of retinal and optic nerve diseases. This book is meant to bring together all this information so clinicians can have one authoritative text to turn to as we begin to use this new imaging modality that was never taught when we were in formal training.

Book Multi GPU Accelerated Real time Retinal Image Segmentation

Download or read book Multi GPU Accelerated Real time Retinal Image Segmentation written by Maxwell Miao and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) has become one of the dominant imaging technologies for ophthalmic diagnostics and vision research. The fast and high-resolution cross-sectional data that OCT provides has brought a new possibility in the role of intra-operative imaging. However, existing commercial OCT systems lack the automated real-time functionality for providing immediate feedback of changes in anatomical configuration as the result of surgical actions. The predominant reason for lacking such functionality is because high complexity algorithms are hard to implement in real-time imaging due to their computationally expensive nature. In this thesis, we will present a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) accelerated retinal layer segmentation for real-time intra-operative imaging applications. Modern GPUs has emerged as a strong tool for mass computation in scientific researches. The computational power of the GPU outpaces Central Processing Unit (CPU) significantly when the processing task is parallelizable. Image segmentation is a computationally expensive algorithm and traditionally implemented in sequential instructions. An example of a parallelizable segmentation algorithm is Push-Relabel (PR) Graph-Cut(GC), which can be implemented using GPU. The GPU Retinal Segmentation (GRS) presented in this thesis is built upon such an algorithm. To ensure the run time of the GRS meets the real-time requirement for its application, multiple GPUs are used to accelerate the segmentation processing further in parallel. As a result of using GRS, we were able to achieve the visualization of the retinal thickness measurement and the enhancement of retinal vasculature networks in real-time.
