Publication number: 20240008736Abstract: A multi-modal system that can perform optical coherence tomography (OCT), scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (fluorescence and reflectance), adaptive optics enhancement, and OCT-angiography simultaneously is presented. Such a system minimizes registration errors in multi-modality images, and accelerates biomedical research. Such a system could also permit enhanced high-speed diagnosis. This system would also permit a wide-selection of excitation wavelengths to measure fluorescence intensity from a variety of fluorophores and auto-fluorescing tissues. A novel animal positioning system that can easily align with the imaging beams for optimal image quality and high-speed experiment-setup and imaging of animals is also presented.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2021Publication date: January 11, 2024Applicant: Netra Systems, IncInventor: Manish Kulkarni
