Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

7.8K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Electron Microscope Tomography and Single-particle Reconstruction

2.7K
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can be used to determine the 3D structure of biological samples with the help of techniques such as electron microscope tomography and single-particle reconstruction. While single-particle reconstruction can examine macromolecules and macromolecular complexes in vitro conditions only, tomography permits the study of cell components or small cells in vivo.

Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

8.5K
Optical microscopy uses optic principles to provide detailed images of samples. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek designed the first compound optical microscope in the 17th century to visualize blood cells, bacteria, and yeast cells. In 1830, Joseph Jackson Lister created an essentially modern light microscope. The 20th century saw the development of microscopes with enhanced magnification and resolution.
In optical microscopy, the specimen to be viewed is placed on a glass slide and clipped on the stage...

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Optics
    • Computational Imaging

    Background:

    • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) transverse resolution is limited by aberrations from optical components and samples.
    • Adaptive optics are typically used for aberration correction, but add hardware complexity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose an automated, fast computational method for aberration correction in OCT imaging.
    • To improve image quality without requiring additional adaptive optics hardware.

    Main Methods:

    • A stochastic parallel gradient descent (SPGD) algorithm was employed for aberration correction.
    • A virtual phase filter using Zernike polynomials was optimized to eliminate wavefront aberrations.
    • The method was validated on simulated data and biological samples (phantom, ex-vivo tissue, in-vivo retina).

    Main Results:

    • Accurate and fast convergence in estimating aberration wavefronts for simulated data.
    • Recovery of diffraction-limited optical performance in biological samples.
    • Significant intensity increase (nearly 3-fold) in out-of-focus planes of particle-based tissue phantoms.
    • SPGD algorithm demonstrated improved run-time performance over Rprop for complex distortions.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed SPGD-based computational method effectively corrects optical aberrations in OCT.
    • The technique shows promise for real-time clinical imaging applications due to its speed and efficiency.
    • Aberration correction significantly improves image quality and intensity recovery in scattering tissues.
