Dual instrument for in vivo and ex vivo OCT imaging in an ENT department

Abstract: A dual instrument is assembled to investigate the usefulness of optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging in an ear, nose and throat (ENT) department. Instrument 1 is dedicated to in vivo laryngeal investigation, based on an endoscope probe head assembled by compounding a miniature transversal flying spot scanning probe with a commercial fiber bundle endoscope. This dual probe head is used to implement a dual channel nasolaryngeal endoscopy-OCT system. The two probe heads are used to provide simultaneously OC… Show more

“…For our current project we approach GS-based handheld probes [45], as well as endoscopic miniature scanning heads. Another research avenue is on the optimal scanning algorithms that have to be employed in OCT (but more general, in Biomedical Imaging) to obtain the most -in terms of speed (for in vivo real-time imaging) and artifact-free imagesfrom the OCT systems.…”

“…Combination of three technologies in one system, OCT, scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and adaptive optics and highest limit in vivo obtained in en-face images as thin as 3 μm were reported. Resources were oriented towards extending the expertise acquired from ophthalmology to cell imaging and OCT applicability to image embryos [49] and more recently, towards OCT endoscopy [45]. Expertise was extended to dentistry [47], to imaging of basal cell carcinoma and to art conservation [50].…”

“…Another line of work is in the development of different control structures of the device to minimize the response time of the device or its precision [32]. The application of 1D and 2D GSs in assemblies such as handheld scanning probes for OCT have also been completed [51] and is a promising direction of research. These aspects, of the investigation of the programming part of the devices, are in conjunction with those of major companies to improve the constructive and functional aspects of GSs [23], in terms of motors, pivots, moving elements, command, control and testing.…”
