Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Control Systems

Background:

  • Manual laser power adjustment in retinal therapies is imprecise, leading to variable treatment effects and limited prevention of over/undertreatment.
  • Consistent temperature at irradiated spots is critical for sub-damaging hyperthermal treatments and safe photocoagulation, especially with short exposure times.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate the benefits of automatic closed-loop temperature control in retinal laser treatments.
  • To validate the control strategy through extensive experiments on porcine eye explants.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a model predictive controller for safe and reliable temperature rise.
  • Employed an extended Kalman filter (EKF) to estimate temperature and spot-dependent absorption coefficients in real-time using optoacoustic measurements.
  • Validated the control strategy using fluorescence vitality stains to measure lesion size.

Main Results:

  • The EKF accurately estimated peak temperatures by correlating lesion size with cell death temperature values.
  • The closed-loop control scheme achieved consistent lesion sizes despite varying absorption, showing reduced variability compared to open-loop control.

Conclusions:

  • The developed closed-loop control approach facilitates safe sub-damaging treatments in retinal laser therapy.
  • This method significantly lowers the risk of over- and undertreatment in mild coagulation procedures.
