Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the optical analog of ultrasound imaging and is a powerful imaging technique that enables non-invasive, in vivo, high resolution, cross-sectional imaging in biological tissue. Between 30 to 40 Million OCT imaging procedures are performed per year in ophthalmology. The overall market is estimated at more than 0.5 Billion USD.A new generation OCT technology was developed, dramatically increasing resolution and speed, achieving in vivo optical biopsy, i.e. the visualization of tissue architectural morphology in situ and in real time. Functional extensions of OCT technology enable non-invasive, depth resolved functional assessment and imaging of tissue.The book introduces OCT technology and applications not only from an optical and technological viewpoint, but also from the biomedical and clinical perspective. This second edition is widely extended and covers significantly more topics then the first edition of this book. The chapters are written by leading international research groups, in a style comprehensible to a broad audience. It will be of interest not only to physicists, scientists and engineers, but also to biomedical and clinical researchers from different medical specialties.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The past decade has witnessed the fastest growing of biomedical optics research in history. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is one of the most exciting inventions in biomedical optics. This dissertation represented my Ph.D. research work on ophthalmic OCT under the mentoring of Dr. Zhongping Chen at Beckman Laser Institute & medical clinic of University of California, Irvine (BLIMC-UCI). My other academic advisors included Dr. Bruce Tromberg, Dr. Anthony Durkin, Dr. Ron Kurtz, and Dr. Barry Kupperman. The in vivo spectral Doppler OCT imaging technology developed to image dynamic, pulsatile retinal blood vessels was highlighted in this dissertation. Some technical details of the ophthalmic OCT imaging system I developed at BLIMC-UCI were discussed. Some collaborated ophthalmic research work such as screening retina transplants and monitoring subsurface femtosecond laser photo-disruption on anterior segment of human eye for Glaucoma treatment were also presented. I wish the publication of this dissertation will not only promote scientific knowledge, but also stimulate interest of readers in developing more OCT applications.
