  • Patent number: 11612319
    Abstract: Systems and methods for Broad Line Fundus Imaging (BLFI), an imaging approach that is a hybrid between confocal and widefield imaging systems, are presented. These systems and methods are focused on improving the quality and signal of broad line fundus images or imaging methods to create high contrast and high resolution fundus images. Embodiments related to improved pupil splitting, artifact removal, reflex minimization, adaptable field of view, instrument alignment and illumination details are considered.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11153463
    Abstract: A camera capable of quickly updating a region of interest (ROI) in its sensor array is provided. The camera is configured to image individual scan lines of a scan imager created as a scan beam is scanned across a subject. A different ROI is defined for each scan line to be imaged. To achieve this, a table of ROI-defining entries is loaded into the camera prior to imaging the scan lines. The ROI-defining entries are used to update the sensor's ROI during the camera's Frame-Overhead-Time. In this manner, the ROI is changed in between the imaging of consecutive scans lines.
