Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: Objetivo: Avaliar a sensibilidade e especificidade dos classificadores de aprendizagem de máquina no diagnóstico de glaucoma usando dados do Spectral Domain OCT (SD-OCT) e perimetria automatizada acromática (PAA). Desenho do estudo: Estudo transversal observacional. Método: Sessenta e dois pacientes com glaucoma e 48 indivíduos normais foram incluídos. Todos os pacientes foram submetidos a exame oftalmológico completo, PAA (24-2 SITA; Humphrey Field Analyzer II, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA) e exame de imagem da camada de fibras nervosas utilizando SD-OCT (Cirrus HD-OCT; Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc., Dublin, California). Curvas ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) foram obtidas para todos os parâmetros do SD-OCT e índices globais da perimetria acromática (MD, PSD, GHT). Subsequentemente, os seguintes classificadores de aprendizagem de máquina (CAMs) foram testados usando parâmetros do OCT e PAA: Bagging (BAG), Naive-Bayes (NB), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Radial Basis Function (RBF), Random Forest (RAN), Ensemble Selection (ENS), Classification Tree (CTREE), Ada Boost M1(ADA), Support Vector Machine Linear (SVML) e Support Vector Machine Gaussian (SVMG). Áreas abaixo da curva ROC (aROC) obtidas com os parâmetros isolados do campo visual (CV) e OCT foram comparados com os CAMs usando dados combinados do OCT e CV. Resultados: A média de idade foi de 57,0 ± 9,2 anos para os indivíduos normais e 59,9 ± 9,0 anos para os pacientes glaucomatosos (p=0,103). As médias dos valores do Mean Deviation (MD) foram -4,1 ± 2,4 dB para glaucomatosos e -1,5 ± 1,6 dB para indivíduos normais (p<0,001). Os parâmetros do SD-OCT com maiores aROCs foram: quadrante inferior (aROC=0,813) e espessura média (aROC=0,807). O melhor parâmetro do CV foi PSD (aROC=0,915). Combinando os dados do OCT e do CV, aROCs dos CAMs variaram entre 0,777 (CTREE) e 0,946 (RAN). A maior aROC dos CAMs OCT+CV, obtida com RAN (0,946) foi significativamente maior que o melhor parâmetro do OCT (p=0,003), mas não houve diferença estatisticamente significante com o melhor parâmetro do CV (p=0,37). Conclusão: Os classificadores de aprendizagem de máquina treinados com dados do OCT e CV podem discriminar entre olhos normais e glaucomatosos com sucesso. A combinação das medidas do OCT e CV melhoraram a acurácia diagnóstica comparados aos parâmetros do OCT / Abstract: Purpose: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of machine learning classifiers (MLCs) for glaucoma diagnosis using Spectral Domain OCT (SD-OCT) and standard automated perimetry (SAP). Design: Observational cross-sectional study. Population: Sixty two glaucoma patients and 48 healthy individuals were included. Methods: All patients underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination, SAP and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) imaging with SD-OCT (Cirrus HD-OCT; Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc., Dublin, California). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were obtained for all SD-OCT parameters and some SAP parameters (MD, PSD, GHT). Subsequently, the following MLCs were tested using parameters from SD-OCT and SAP: Bagging (BAG), Naive-Bayes (NB), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Radial Basis Function (RBF), Random Forest (RAN), Ensemble Selection (ENS), Classification Tree (CTREE), Ada Boost M1 (ADA), Support Vector Machine Linear (SVML) and Support Vector Machine Gaussian (SVMG). Areas under the ROC (aROC) obtained with SAP and OCT parameters were compared with those obtained with MLCs using combined OCT+SAP data. Results: The mean age was 57.0 ± 9.2 years for healthy individuals and 59.9 ± 9.0 years for glaucoma patients (p=0.103). Mean Deviation (MD) values were -4.1 ± 2.4 dB for glaucoma patients and -1.5 ± 1.6 dB for healthy individuals (p<0.001). SD-OCT parameters with the greater aROCs were inferior quadrant (0.813) and average thickness (0.807). The best SAP parameter was PSD (aROC=0.915). Combining OCT and SAP data, MLCs'aROCs varied from 0.777(CTREE) to 0.946 (RAN). The best combined OCT+SAP aROC, obtained with RAN (0.946), was significantly larger than the best single OCT parameter (p=0.003), but was not significantly different from the aROC obtained with the best single SAP parameter (p=0.37). Conclusion: Machine learning classifiers trained with OCT and SAP data can successfully discriminate between healthy and glaucomatous eyes. The combination of OCT and SAP measurements improved the diagnostic accuracy compared with OCT data alone / Mestrado / Oftalmologia / Mestre em Ciências Médicas

Comparison of optical coherence tomography, the pulsed photoacoustic technique, and the time-of-flight technique in glucose measurements <em>in vitro</em>Kinnunen, M. (Matti) 08 August 2006 (has links)
Abstract
The development of a non-invasive glucose monitoring technique is very important because it would tremendously diminish the need to puncture the skin when taking blood samples and help diabetic patients in controlling their blood glucose levels and in treating Diabetes Mellitus. The focus of this thesis is on measuring the effect of glucose on the light scattering properties of a tissue-simulating phantom and biological tissues in vitro. Optical coherence tomography (OCT), the pulsed photoacoustic (PA) technique, and the time-of-flight (TOF) technique are used in the measurements and their capabilities for detecting changes in the scattering properties are evaluated and compared with each other. The theoretical background of the techniques, light propagation and PA wave generation are briefly explained. The glucose-induced changes in light scattering are also reviewed.
The measurement results with the OCT and the PA technique from Intralipid, pig whole blood, and mouse skin tissue samples show that the glucose-induced changes are larger in the biological tissues than in the Intralipid phantom. The PA measurements show that although the PA signals are stronger at a wavelength of 532 nm than at 1064 nm, the glucose-induced change in the peak-to-peak value of the PA signal measured from pig whole blood is larger at a wavelength of 1064 nm than at 532 nm. The TOF measurements with a streak camera show that the scattering-related changes in the registered pulse shapes occur mainly in the rising part of the pulses. The utilization of fiber-optic measurement heads enabled the detection of back-scattered photons at different distances from the emitting fiber.
Although all the techniques are able to detect changes induced by large glucose concentrations (0–5000 mg/dl) in Intralipid, the effect of glucose on the scattering properties of Intralipid is so weak that the techniques failed to detect changes with lower (50–500 mg/dl) concentrations. The measurements of biological samples with the PA technique and with the OCT also demonstrate capabilities to measure glucose concentrations in the physiologically relevant range (18–450 mg/dl) as well. The results compare well with earlier literature and also confirm some earlier findings.

Optical coherence tomography of strongly scattering mediaKirillin, M. (Mikhail) 18 March 2008 (has links)
Abstract
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a modern rapidly developing technique for non-invasive imaging of the internal structure of optically non-uniform objects based on the principles of low-coherent interferometry. However, multiple scattering of light in the objects under study brings distortions to the images obtained by OCT. The analysis of formation of the OCT signals is required for understanding the role of multiple scattering in this formation and providing recommendations for optimal configuration of a measuring setup. In the present thesis formation of the OCT signals and images is analyzed implementing Monte Carlo simulations of light propagation in scattering media. Blood, intralipid solution, human skin and paper samples are chosen as the objects under study due to the interest in the diagnostics of these objects in biomedicine and paper industry.
Multilayer models of skin phantoms, skin and paper were developed in the frames of the present study for simulation of OCT signals and two-dimensional OCT images of these objects. The contribution of different scattering orders as well as different fractions of photons (least and multiply scattered, diffusive and non-diffusive) to these images was found allowing to evaluate the maximal depth of non-distorted imaging in each particular case.
The simulated OCT images were compared to the experimental ones demonstrating qualitative similarity. This fact allowed the author to analyze qualitatively the influence of parameters of the OCT setup on the images which have also been acquired in this work. The formation of the OCT images of paper samples with various refractive index matching liquids was also studied.

Novel assessments of early enamel erosionChew, Hooi Pin January 2013 (has links)
Dental erosion has been defined as a chemical process that involves the dissolution of enamel and dentine by acid(s) not derived from bacteria when the surrounding aqueous phase is under-saturated with tooth mineral. Clinically however, dental erosion hardly ever occurs exclusively from the other modes of tooth wear such as abrasion and attrition. Hence the term erosive wear has been proposed and used to describe erosion-facilitated wear.With the prevalence of erosive wear being reported to be on the rise among children and adolescents in many countries, a plethora of oral health products such as dentifrices and mouth rinses had been put forward with claims of increasing the resistance of the enamel and / or dentine from being demineralised. However, the efficacy of these oral health products is still widely questionable as the studies carried out were mainly in vitro and / or in situ studies and the contradictory results were reported by different groups of researchers.The above mentioned discrepancies are often due to non-standardised in vitro and in situ study designs of erosion studies. Parameters such as type of acid used, concentration of acid used, duration of acid exposure, inclusion or exclusion of abrasion in the study model, ex vivo or in vivo acid challenge, ex vivo or in vivo treatment with oral health product and the nature of pellicle on the specimen are often varied.The availability of an detection tool which could be used to measure demineralisation on natural tooth surface in vivo would exclude many of the inevitable variability in in situ and in vitro study design, such as the simulation of the intra oral conditions in which the erosion challenge and intervention take place and the nature of the pellicle formed on the specimens. Hence with an in vivo detection tool, it is hopeful that the efficacy of any interventions would be evaluated more accurately and its results expounded to a wider context. It would be useful if the tool was sensitive to the very early stages of the erosion process as this would entail shorter and more economical study designs. Arising from the problems discussed above, potential non-invasive assessment methods that could be used clinically to measure demineralisation were explored and it was found that two optical methods, Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Quantitative Light-induced Fluorescence (QLF) were potential methods for the tasks.The studies described in this thesis were divided into three main big sections; the first being the in vitro validation work of the two optical methods (Chapter 5 and 6), the second, validation of these methods in situ (Chapter 7) and finally the assessment of the efficacy of a high fluoride dentifrice on early enamel erosion using these two methods (Chapter 8).In the in vitro validation (Chapter 5), it was demonstrated that both QLF and OCT were able to detect erosion-interval related changes in natural surface samples eroded with orange juice for 60 minutes. However, results of Multiple Linear Regression and Paired t test suggest that QLF was more sensitive than OCT in the detection of demineralisation changes in this particular experimental setting. QLF demonstrated a R2 value of 0.590 while the best of the OCT outcome measure demonstrated a R2 value of 0.319.Further in vitro study (Chapter 6) was performed to explore the use of a moistened-exposed surface as a reference method for both OCT and QLF as it was felt that it would be beneficial if a coated reference area which posts as an additional step for error could be done away with. Results of this study showed that the moistened-exposed surface could be used a reference method for QLF only but not for OCT. Furnished with the findings of the above mentioned in vitro validation studies, an in situ validation of both the optical methods was performed (Chapter 7). It was found that OCT and QLF were able to longitudinally measure in situ demineralisation on polished and natural surfaced enamel which were subjected to 150 minutes of in vivo exposure to orange juice. Similar to the results of the in vitro study, QLF was found to be more sensitive than OCT in the detection of demineralisation changes on natural surfaced enamel. The last in situ study (Chapter 8) was to evaluate whether there was a protective effect of treating human enamel with a high-concentrated fluoride dentifrice during an active erosion phase and whether OCT and QLF were able to detect the protective effect. It was found that treating natural surface enamel with a 5000ppm NaF dentifrice increased its resistance against concurrent in vivo erosive challenge with an orange juice challenge. QLF was able to detect the protective effect of the 5000ppm NaF dentifrice on natural surface enamel against early in vivo erosion with an orange juice challenge regime while OCT did not.

Optical Coherence Photoacoustic Microscopy (OC-PAM) for Multimodal ImagingLiu, Xiaojing 23 November 2016 (has links)
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) are two noninvasive, high-resolution, three-dimensional, biomedical imaging modalities based on different contrast mechanisms. OCT detects the light backscattered from a biological sample either in the time or spectral domain using an interferometer to form an image. PAM is sensitive to optical absorption by detecting the light-induced acoustic waves to form an image. Due to their complementary contrast mechanisms, OCT and PAM are suitable for being combined to achieve multimodal imaging.
In this dissertation, an optical coherence photoacoustic microscopy (OC-PAM) system was developed for in vivo multimodal retinal imaging with a pulsed broadband NIR light source. To test the capabilities of the system on multimodal ophthalmic imaging, the retina of pigmented rats was imaged. The OCT images showed the retinal structures with quality similar to conventional OCT, while the PAM images revealed the distribution of melanin in the retina since the NIR PAM signals are generated mainly from melanin in the posterior segment of the eye.
By using the pulsed broadband light source, the OCT image quality highly depends on the pulse-to-pulse stability of the light source without averaging. In addition, laser safety is always a concern for in vivo applications, especially for eye imaging with a pulsed light source. Therefore, a continuous wave (CW) light source is desired for OC-PAM applications. An OC-PAM system using an intensity-modulated CW superluminescent diode was then developed. The system was tested for multimodal imaging the vasculature of a mouse ear in vivo by using Gold Nanorods (GNRs) as contrast agent for PAM, as well as excised porcine eyes ex vivo.
Since the quantitative information of the optical properties extracted from the proposed NIR OC-PAM system is potentially able to provide a unique technique to evaluate the existence of melanin and lipofuscin specifically, a phantom study has been conducted and the relationship between image intensity of OCT and PAM was interpreted to represent the relationship between the optical scattering property and optical absorption property. It will be strong evidence for practical application of the proposed NIR OC-PAM system.

Measurement of Refractive Index and Thickness of Multi Layer Systems Using Fourier Domain Optical Coherence TomographyRajai, Payman January 2016 (has links)
A multilayered system is a good model for many optical systems. An optical
coherence tomography (OCT) system can provide fundamental information about
the refractive index distribution of the sample and enables images to be corrected
for geometric accuracy, but this requires the separation of refractive index and
physical thickness for each layer from the measured optical paths. In this thesis a
novel approach for simultaneous extraction of index and thickness of multi layer
systems and the last medium index of refraction in a single experiment using only
the object’s spectral response available by any Fourier Domain OCT system without
using any additional outside measurements is introduced. The method is based on a
novel matrix equation that uses the reflected spectrum from the object and the
measured optical thickness. In the presence of slight error of measuring optical
thickness, the parameters extraction has wavenumber dependency. A novel method
is used to select the suitable set of spectral components that reduces the extracted
parameters error. The parameters extraction method is followed by a fitting process
for optimized results. The method works the best for low contrast index distribution
even in the presence of relatively large optical thickness measurement error.

La première technique donne de se informations sur la composition biochimique des tissus, la seconde donne des information sur la structure. / The aim of this activity is the development of a mono point imaging fiber system which uses hyperspectral multi-excitation auto fluorescence technique for biological tissues and the study of an Optical Coherence Tomography system like another modality. At first, this report presents the optical properties of biological tissues and the relevant fluorophores for cancerous tumors detection. Secondly, the fluorescence imaging system instrumentation and hyperspectral analysis are presented with in vitro results. The third part presents the "scan free" optical coherence tomography system which is able to image without optical displacement. It's characterized and have interesting functionality like depth dependant dispersion compensation. These both techniques are complementary because they get different kind of information. The information of the first one is about biochemical composition of the tissues and the information of the second one is about the stucture.

Previous issue date: 2014 / Resumo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar a sensibilidade e especificidade dos classificadores de aprendizagem de máquina (MLC) e da tomografia de coerência óptica de domínio espectral (SD-OCT) para o diagnóstico de glaucoma. Sessenta e dois pacientes com glaucoma e defeito de campo visual inicial a moderado, e 48 indivíduos saudáveis foram incluídos. Todos os participantes foram submetidos a um exame oftalmológico completo, perimetria automatizada acromática e medida da espessura da camada de fibras nervosas da retina com SD-OCT (Cirrus HD-OCT; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, Califórnia, EUA). Uma curva ROC (receiver operating curve) foi obtida para cada parâmetro do SD-OCT: espessura média, espessura nos quatro quadrantes (temporal, superior, nasal e inferior) e a espessura a cada hora de relógio. Posteriormente, foram testados os seguintes MLCs construídos a partir dos dados do OCT: Árvore de Decisão (CTREE), Random Forest (RAN), Bagging (BAG), Adaptative Boosting (ADA), Ensemble Selection (ENS), Multilayer Perceptrons (MLP), Rede de Funções de Base Radial (RBF), Naive-Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine - Linear (SVMl) e Support Vector Machine - Gaussian (SVMg). Áreas sob as curvas ROC (aROCs) foram obtidas para cada parâmetro do SD-OCT e para cada MLC. A média de idade foi de 57,0 ± 9,2 anos para os indivíduos saudáveis e de 59,9 ± 9,0 anos para os pacientes com diagnóstico de glaucoma (p=0,103). Valores do "mean deviation¿ (MD) foram de -4,1 ± 2,4 dB para pacientes com glaucoma e -1,5 ± 1,6 dB para indivíduos normais (p<0,001). Os parâmetros do SD-OCT com as maiores aROCs foram: quadrante inferior (0,813), espessura média global (0,807), 7 horas (0,765) e 6 horas de relógio (0,754). As aROCs dos classificadores variaram de 0,785 (ADA) a 0,818 (BAG). A aROC obtida com o BAG não foi significativamente diferente da aROC obtida com o melhor parâmetro isolado do SD-OCT (p=0,932). O SD-OCT mostrou boa acurácia diagnóstica em um grupo de pacientes com glaucoma inicial a moderado.
