  2. Optical coherence tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coherence_tomography

    Ocular OCT retinal thickness map, right eye Time-domain OCT of the macular area of a retina at 800 nm, axial resolution 3 μm Spectral-domain OCT macula cross-section scan. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a technique for obtaining sub-surface images of translucent or opaque materials at a resolution equivalent to a low-power microscope.

  3. Scanning laser ophthalmoscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_laser_ophthalmoscopy

    SLO utilizes horizontal and vertical scanning mirrors to scan a specific region of the retina and create raster images viewable on a television monitor. While it is able to image the retina in real time, it has issues with reflections from eye astigmatism and the cornea. Eye movements additionally can confound the data from SLO. [3]

  4. OCT Biomicroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OCT_Biomicroscopy

    OCT Biomicroscopy is the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in place of slit lamp biomicroscopy to examine the transparent axial tissues of the eye. [1] Traditionally, ophthalmic biomicroscopy has been completed with a slit lamp biomicroscope that uses slit beam illumination and an optical microscope to enable stereoscopic, magnified, cross-sectional views of transparent tissues in the ...

  5. Medical optical imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_optical_imaging

    Medical optical imaging is the use of light as an investigational imaging technique for medical applications, pioneered by American Physical Chemist Britton Chance.Examples include optical microscopy, spectroscopy, endoscopy, scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, laser Doppler imaging, optical coherence tomography, and transdermal optical imaging.

  6. Optical coherence tomography angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_Coherence...

    A short scan time prevents too much patient movement during signal acquisition. With the development of Fourier-domain OCT, spectral-domain OCT, and swept source signal acquisition time was greatly improved making OCTA possible. [40] OCTA scan time is now around three seconds, however, saccadic eye movement still causes a low signal-to-noise ratio.

  7. Ophthalmoscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophthalmoscopy

    Observing the eye's interior required alignment of the observer's vision and the light source. This was discovered by William Cumming, a young ophthalmologist at the Royal London Ophthalmic Hospital , who wrote that "every eye could be made luminous if the axis from a source of illumination directed towards a person's eye and the line of vision ...

  9. Doppler optical coherence tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_optical_coherence...

    Doppler Optical Coherence Tomography is an extension of OCT, where it combines the Doppler effect principle to achieve high resolution tomographic images in biological tissues. And because of its high resolution and velocity sensitivity, there are many applications in the medical field. The basic phenomenon of Doppler OCT can be explained below.
