Ultraweitwinkel-Fundusfotografie und -angiografie in der Differenzialdiagnose und zur Therapieplanung bei peripheren vaskul?ren Netzhauterkrankungen
摘要： Investigation of vascular diseases of the peripheral retina requires imaging procedures that allow a comprehensive view of the periphery, as well as reproducible pictures. In particular, ultra-wide field fluorescence angiography facilitates diagnosis, therapeutic decisions and follow-up examinations. While vasculopathies such as Coats disease and familiar exudative vitreoretinopathy are diagnosed within the first and second decade of life, patients? compliance during fundus imaging is typically reduced within this age range. Compared to the repeated imaging procedures for composite formation, ultra-wide field imaging has significantly reduced recording time. Nevertheless, current imaging systems are not able to map the entire retina in scaled proportions. Therefore, the imaging frame must be guided by patients? gaze onto the affected retinal area. Moreover, the medical photographer must be aware of the clinical setting and the region of interest. Hence, previous detailed funduscopy by trained ophthalmologists will remain indispensable.

Electro-optic imaging enables efficient wide-field fluorescence lifetime microscopy
摘要： Nanosecond temporal resolution enables new methods for wide-field imaging like time-of-flight, gated detection, and fluorescence lifetime. The optical efficiency of existing approaches, however, presents challenges for low-light applications common to fluorescence microscopy and single-molecule imaging. We demonstrate the use of Pockels cells for wide-field image gating with nanosecond temporal resolution and high photon collection efficiency. Two temporal frames are obtained by combining a Pockels cell with a pair of polarizing beam-splitters. We show multi-label fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), single-molecule lifetime spectroscopy, and fast single-frame FLIM at the camera frame rate with 103–105 times higher throughput than single photon counting. Finally, we demonstrate a space-to-time image multiplexer using a re-imaging optical cavity with a tilted mirror to extend the Pockels cell technique to multiple temporal frames. These methods enable nanosecond imaging with standard optical systems and sensors, opening a new temporal dimension for wide-field low-light microscopy.

Deep learning optical-sectioning method
摘要： Current optical-sectioning methods require complex optical system or considerable computation time to improve imaging quality. Here we propose a deep learning-based method for optical sectioning of wide-field images. This method only needs one pair of contrast images for training to facilitate reconstruction of an optically sectioned image. The removal effect of background information and resolution that is achievable with our technique is similar to traditional optical-sectioning methods, but offers lower noise levels and a higher imaging depth. Moreover, reconstruction speed can be optimized to 14 Hz. This cost-effective and convenient method enables high-throughput optical sectioning techniques to be developed.

Diagnostic Availability of Ultra-Wide-field Fundus Imaging in Korean Patient with Retinal Break
摘要： Purpose: To evaluate the availability of ultra-wide-field fundus photography compared to fundus examination after pupil dilatation in Korean patients with retinal break. Methods: For this retrospective case review of consecutive 160 patients, 230 lesions with retinal breaks were recruited. The ultra-wide-field images were taken after fundus examination with pupil dilatation performed by a retinal specialist. We analyzed ultra-wide-field images according to patient characteristics and separated area. We divided lesions into anterior and posterior areas, and each area was separated into 4 quadrants (superior, inferior, temporal, and nasal). Results: The sensitivity of ultra-wide-field imaging for detecting retinal break was 72% (95% confidence interval [CI] 65-79%), and the specificity was 94% (95% CI 90-98%). The sensitivity of detection of posterior retina was 89% (95% CI 85-93%), and that of anterior retina was 72% (95% CI 66-78%); this difference was significant (p = 0.007). There was a significant statistical difference at the inferior quadrant between anterior and posterior retina, but not at superior, temporal, or nasal quadrants. The sensitivity of detection in the inferior quadrant in the anterior retina was 43% (95% CI 29-57%). Conclusions: Ultra-wide-field fundus photography can detect retinal break, but there is limitation in anterior retinal lesions, especially the inferior area. Therefore, ultra-wide-field fundus photography cannot be an alternative method instead of fundus examination with pupil dilatation.

Impact of image averaging on wide-field choroidal thickness measurements using enhanced-depth imaging optical coherence tomography
摘要： Background: The aim of this study was to examine the influence of B-scan averaging on choroidal thickness using wide-field enhanced-depth imaging optical coherence tomography. Methods: Six high-resolution trans-foveal horizontal enhanced-depth imaging line scans (spanning a 60° field) were acquired consecutively from the right eye of 10 healthy adults (mean age 30 ± 5 years), with each line scan an average of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 or 100 B-scans, using the automated real-time image averaging and follow-up features of a Spectralis device. The impact of B-scan averaging on regional measures of wide-field choroidal thickness (across macular and peripheral regions) and their accuracy was investigated, assuming that averaging 100 B-scans would provide the most accurate estimate of choroidal thickness. Results: Regional estimates of wide-field choroidal thickness did not vary across the different B-scan averaging conditions (all p > 0.05). The mean choroidal thickness averaged across the full wide-field area exhibited the closest agreement to measures obtained with 100 averaged B-scans, when frame averaging exceeded 30 B-scans (95 per cent limits of agreement +10 to ?7, +7 to ?7 and +6 to ?3 μm for 30, 40 and 50 averaged B-scans, respectively), compared to 10 and 20 averaged B-scans (95 per cent limits of agreement +13 to ?8 and +13 to ?6 μm, respectively; p < 0.01 and p < 0.02 compared to the accuracy of 50 averaged B-scans). Conclusion: Averaging 30 B-scans for an individual enhanced-depth imaging optical coherence tomography line scan provided accurate measures of choroidal thickness across a wide-field (60°) area in young healthy eyes. This information can assist in designing the volumetric scan protocols required for detailed examination of the macular and peripheral choroid.
