... Abstract The human eye undergoes extensive changes during early childhood, including axial elongation, corneal flattening and reduced lens power. Animal studies have shown that removing the crystalline lens during infancy retards axial elongation. Axial elongation has been studied in children...

... time. It detects motion in blood vessel lumen by measuring the variation in reflected OCT signal amplitude between consecutive cross-sectional scans. The novelty of SSADA lies in how the OCT signal is processed to enhance flow detection and reject axial bulk motion noise. Specifically, the algorithm...

... ‘Expert’ 1.0 T and to a Philips‘Gyroscan’ 1.5 T. The analyses was performed in three steps: (1) The evaluation of the magnitudeof error was performed within transversal slices in two orientations (axial/coronal) byusing a cylindrical phantom with an embedded grid. (2) The deviations were determined for21...

... volume scans without motion artifacts and helps significantly improve signal-to-noise ratio. This system also allows the use of a full spectrum amplitude decorrelation algorithm that produces clear differentiation between blood flow and static tissue without sacrificing the axial resolution of OCT...

... Abstract Seronegative spondyloarthritis comprises a group of diseases that share certain genetic, clinical, and radiographic features. Spondylitis, the most distinguishing feature of the group, is an inflammation of axial joints manifested by symptoms termed inflammatory back pain, which...

... mellitus, type 1 vs. 2 of diabetes mellitus, worse metabolic control (i.e., higher HbA1c level), and shorter axial length (hyperopia). With further development of medical infrastructure in rural regions, life expectancy of diabetic individuals will prolong increasing their risk to develop DR during...

... Abstract Head motion recorded by the vestibular labyrinths is conveyed to specific brainstem and cerebellar structures that relay velocity information to eye muscles to stabilize vision, and to the axial and limb muscles necessary to stabilize balance. Neural networks enhance and extend...

... is recapitulated in a vertical column. The neoformation of cartilage in the axial direction is synchronized with its destruction at the vascular invasion front of the metaphysis and results in an elongation of the bony trabeculae. The mechanism that governs the highly coordinated sequence of events that underlies...

... HRO dialyzers: Theranova 400 and Theranova 500 (Baxter International Inc., Deerfield, IL, USA). Axial blood and dialysate compartment pressure drop along with transmembrane pressure, measured in vitro with blood ( Q b = 300 or 400 mL/min; Q d = 500 mL/min; net ultrafiltration rate = 0), served...

... diopters and >26 mm axial length) underwent multimodal imaging, including multicolor imaging, fluorescein angiography, spectral-domain (SD)-OCT and OCT-A. The OCT-A features of CNV were analyzed and correlated with the angiography and SD-OCT findings. Results: On OCTA, the CNV appeared as a large...

... improved detection sensitivity of low blood flow and reduced motion artifacts without compromising axial resolution. In this chapter, we describe the implementation of OCTARA with swept-source OCT technology, the technical specifications of acquisition (e.g. the number of scans, area of examination field...
