Abstract:
A large-depth-of-field full-field optical angiography (LD-FFOA) method is developed to expand the depth-of-field (DOF) using a contrast pyramid fusion algorithm (CPFA). The absorption intensity fluctuation modulation effect is utilized to obtain full-field optical angiography (FFOA) images at different focus positions. The CPFA is used to process these FFOA images with different focuses. By selecting high-contrast areas, the CPFA can highlight the characteristics and details of blood vessels to obtain LD-FFOA images. In the optimal case of the proposed method, the DOF for FFOA is more than tripled using 10 differently focused FFOA images. Both the phantom and animal experimental results show that the LD-FFOA resolves FFOA defocusing issues induced by surface and thickness inhomogeneities in biological samples. The proposed method can be potentially applied to practical biological experiments.
