概括
镜头变暗显著影响视网膜成像质量,特别是蓝色/绿色底部自光 (FAF). 卷积神经网络 (CNN) 有效地评估图像质量,有助于可靠的视网膜疾病监测.
科学领域:
- 眼科和生物医学光学.
- 医学影像分析和人工智能.
背景情况:
- 视网膜成像质量非常依赖光学介质的清晰度.
- 老化的镜头会导致阻光和自发光,扭曲图像分析.
- 研究了镜头变暗和自流光 (AF) 度量,以确定它们对自动图像质量评估的影响.
研究的目的:
- 为了量化镜头不透明度和AF指标.
- 评估镜头指标对视网膜图像质量评估自动化的影响.
- 将自动化图像质量评估与人类分级进行比较.
主要方法:
- 在227名受试者身上进行了镜头定量AF (LQAF),Scheimpflug成像和前腔OCT.
- 使用LQAF值,Pentacam核分期得分和相对镜头反射率来估计镜头的阴暗度.
- 开发了一个卷积神经网络 (CNN) 来预测FAF和红外 (IR) 图像质量,结果与人类评估相关.
主要成果:
- 视网膜图像质量在所有模式 (IR > GAF > BAF) 中总体上很高.
- 基于CNN的图像质量预测显示出极好的准确性 (MAE 0.9),与人类分级相当.
- 镜头的定量AF (LQAF) 与图像质量标准的相关性最强,蓝/绿FAF (BAF) 对镜头更改最容易受到影响.
结论:
- 基于CNN的图像质量评估对视网膜成像非常有效.
- 镜片变暗显著影响BAF质量,需要在临床研究中考虑.
- 这些发现可以为可靠的视网膜疾病监测制定切断值.

Immunofluorescence Microscopy
10.3K
A fluorescence microscope uses fluorescent chromophores called fluorochromes, which can absorb energy from a light source and then emit this energy as visible light. Fluorochromes include naturally fluorescent substances (such as chlorophylls) and fluorescent stains that are added to the specimen to create contrast. Dyes such as Texas red and FITC are examples of fluorochromes. Other examples include the nucleic acid dyes 4’,6’-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), and acridine orange.

Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

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.
