目的:获取眼表图像的综合信息,建立眼表疾病综合诊断和评估。方法:将超高分辨率光学相干断层成像仪(ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography,UHR-OCT)与基于裂隙灯生物显微镜的微血管成像系统相结合,开发了一种多模态、非接触式的眼科光学成像平台。结果:UHR-OCT模块在组织中实现轴向分辨率约为2 μm 。眼表微血管成像模块在最大放大倍率下横向分辨率约为3.5 μm。通过集成在裂隙灯显微镜成像光学路径的不同模块,多模态成像平台能够执行实时前段OCT结构成像、结膜微血管成像和传统裂隙灯成像功能。利用自主开发的软件,进一步分析结膜血管网络图像和血流图像,获取血管分形维数、血流速度、血管直径等定量形态学和血流动力学参数。结论:通过在健康受试者和角膜炎患者的在体成像测试,表明多模态眼前段成像设备可为眼科临床应用及人工智能提供结构和功能信息数据。
Objective: To obtain the comprehensive information of the anterior eye image, establish complementary information for the diagnosis and evaluation of ocular diseases. Methods: We developed a multi-modal, non-invasive optical imaging platform by combining ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography (UHR-OCT) with a microvascular imaging system based on slit-lamp biomicroscopy. Results: The uHR-OCT module achieved an axial resolution of approximately 2 μm in tissues. The lateral resolution of the ocular surface microvascular imaging module under maximum magnification was approximately 3.5 μm. By combining the imaging optical paths of different modules, the customized multi-modal eye imaging platform was capable of performing real-time cross-sectional UHR-OCT imaging of the anterior eye, conjunctival vessel network imaging, high-resolution conjunctival blood flow videography, and traditional slit-lamp imaging on a single device. With self-developed software, a conjunctival vessel network image and blood flow videography were further analyzed to acquire quantitative morphological and hemodynamics parameters, including vessel fractal dimensions, blood flow velocity and vessel diameters. Conclusion: The ability of the multi-modal anterior eye imager to provide both structural and functional information for ophthalmic clinical applications can be demonstrated in a healthy human subject and a keratitis patient.

:17-22
 
目的:针对活体共聚焦显微镜(in vivo confocal microscopy,IVCM)和传统光学相干层析技术(optical coherence tomography,OCT)在人眼角膜成像各自存在成像视野小或无法细胞成像的限制,开发具有高分辨率的非接触全视场光学相干层析系统(full-field optical coherence tomography,FFOCT),实现活体人眼角膜细胞结构FFOCT成像。方法:FFOCT系统采用高数值孔径干燥显微物镜及高速面阵相机,使用双相位调制图像处理方法,实现系统高速高分辨率非接触成像。利用系统对健康人眼进行角膜各深度层的活体FFOCT成像验证其可行性。结果:本研究团队研发了FFOCT的新型活体人眼角膜高分辨率成像系统,实现理论平面成像分辨率1.7 μm,成像视野1.26 mm×1.26 mm,成像速率达275帧/s。利用该系统对正常活体人眼角膜成像实验,在非接触情况下获取了角膜各主要结构层的高分辨率结构影像。结论:FFOCT高分辨率活体人眼角膜成像系统兼具了传统OCT的非接触、大成像视野及IVCM的细胞级别平面分辨率的优势,将为角膜疾病的研究及临床诊疗提供全新的成像分析技术。
Objective: Due to the limitations of small imaging field of view of in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) or the incapability of cellular imaging of traditional optical coherence tomography (OCT) in human corneal imaging, this study was designed to develop a novel high-resolution in vivo human corneal imaging system based on full-field OCT (FFOCT). Methods: The FFOCT system utilized a high numerical aperture air immersion microscope objective and a high-speed area array CMOS camera with two-phase modulation image processing algorithm to achieve high-speed high-resolution non-contact imaging of human cornea. To verify its feasibility, in vivo cornea imaging at different depth was performed on a healthy human subject. Results: The FFOCT system achieved a theoretical lateral imaging resolution of 1.7 μm, an imaging field of view of 1.26 mm×1.26 mm, and an imaging rate of 275 Hz/s. High-resolution FFOCT images of the main structural layers of cornea were achieved by imaging a healthy human cornea in vivo with this system in a non-contact way. Conclusion: The FFOCT human corneal imaging system combines the advantages of the non-contractness and the large imaging field of view of traditional OCT with the cellular lateral resolution of IVCM, potentially providing a new imaging system for the research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of corneal diseases.
