Official title:
Polarization Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography (PS-OCT) for Retinal Imaging
The aim of this pilot study is to assess the ability of a new polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography system to obtain high-quality images of retinal birefringence.
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the world. The current clinical standard-of-care procedure to diagnose glaucoma is visual field testing with disc photography. Visual field testing is subjective both in the patient's feedback and the physician's interpretation of this feedback, and disc photography requires a physician's subjective interpretation. As a result, it is estimated that current methods can diagnose glaucoma only after 40% of the nerve fiber layer (NFL) has been lost. Since glaucoma leads to significant changes in both NFL thickness and NFL optical birefringence, non-invasive imaging of these properties could potentially enable diagnosis of glaucoma prior to changes in vision. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is routinely used in retinal imaging, and its ability to detect changes in NFL health is being actively studied. To detect NFL optical birefringence, a specialized variation of OCT termed polarization sensitive OCT (PS-OCT) is required. Because of high noise in PS-OCT images, prior studies have been unable to detect NFL changes in birefringence. We have recently developed new methods for performing highly sensitive polarization-sensitive OCT. These changes are algorithmic in nature, and use the same optical wavelengths and powers as clinically deployed OCT retinal imaging instruments. In benchtop studies, these algorithmic changes improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of PS-OCT images. We propose to conduct a pilot study in normal, healthy subjects to evaluate if these changes improve the SNR of NFL birefringence images. ;
