Abstract

We present, for the first time, in vivo ultrahigh resolution (2.5 microm in tissue), high speed (10000 A-scans/second equivalent acquisition rate sustained over 160 A-scans) retinal imaging obtained with Fourier domain (FD) OCT employing a commercially available, compact (500x260mm), broad bandwidth (120 nm at full-width-at-half-maximum centered at 800 nm) Titanium:sapphire laser (Femtosource Integral OCT, Femtolasers Produktions GmbH). Resolution and sampling requirements, dispersion compensation as well as dynamic range for ultrahigh resolution FD OCT are carefully analyzed. In vivo OCT sensitivity performance achieved by ultrahigh resolution FD OCT was similar to that of ultrahigh resolution time domain OCT, although employing only 2-3 times less optical power (300 microW). Visualization of intra-retinal layers, especially the inner and outer segment of the photoreceptor layer, obtained by FDOCT was comparable to that, accomplished by ultrahigh resolution time domain OCT, despite an at least 40 times higher data acquisition speed of FD OCT.

摘要

我们首次展示了使用傅里叶域(FD)光学相干断层扫描(OCT)获得的体内超高分辨率(组织中约2.5微米)、高速(在160次A扫描中保持10000次A扫描/秒的等效采集速率)视网膜成像,该扫描采用了市售的紧凑型(500x260mm)、宽带宽(在以800nm为中心的半高全宽处为120nm)钛宝石激光器(Femtosource Integral OCT,Femtolasers Produktions GmbH)。我们仔细分析了超高分辨率FD OCT的分辨率和采样要求、色散补偿以及动态范围。尽管超高分辨率FD OCT仅使用了低2 - 3倍的光功率(约300微瓦),但其实现的体内OCT灵敏度性能与超高分辨率时域OCT相似。通过FD OCT获得的视网膜内层可视化,尤其是光感受器层的内段和外段,与超高分辨率时域OCT实现的结果相当,尽管FD OCT的数据采集速度至少高40倍。
