Abstract:
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optical tomographic imaging modality invented in 1991. The resolution of OCT images is up to 10 times better than that of the conventional ultrasound and has a deeper imaging depth than confocal or multi-photon microscopy. The OCT technique was originally meant for imaging human retinas. Now, this method has become a critical diagnostic technology in the areas of ocular diseases. The advances of fast and high resolution OCT instruments during the past 10 years have opened new fields of applications and perspectives for further development of OCT imaging. Moreover, functional extension of OCT combines the advantages of OCT with additional image contrast obtained by using the Doppler flow, spectroscopy, or polarization as a contrast source. In this presentation, I will focus on our recent works: development of multi-contrast OCT with artificial intelligence to provide personalized and precise diagnosis and treatment.
