摘要:
A method for detecting a disease such as Alzheimer's disease by analysis of retinal vasculature is disclosed. The method for detecting a disease by analysis of retinal vasculature may include applying a combination of optical retro mode illumination techniques to acquire a plurality of amyloid beta plaques and drusen images that are too small to be seen with other imaging modalities. The disease may also be detected with a non-transitory computer storage media having instructions stored thereon which, when executed, execute the method for detecting a disease by analysis of retinal vasculature. The method may track changes in lumen thickness, plaque, size, area and density of the disease by analysis of retinal vasculature over a predetermined period of time.
摘要:
A system and method for rejecting afocal light collected from an in vivo human retina is disclosed. The system may include a detector, a server system being in communication with the detector and a memory system with a rejection of collected afocal light and a disk having an optointerruptor and a motor, which is speed controlled via a non-transitory storage media. The method includes utilizing a series of optical shapes or codes, similar to other structured illumination systems, illuminating the series of optical shapes or codes several times, collecting and processing the series of optical shapes or codes yielding measurements of optical noise and optical signal and subtracting the noise and signal from the final image.

摘要:
A slit lamp mounted eye imaging, a slit lamp integrated, a handheld, OCT integrated, or attached to a separate chinrest-joystick assembly apparatus and method for producing a wide field and/or magnified views of the posterior or the anterior segments of an eye through an undilated or dilated pupil is disclosed. The apparatus images sections and focal planes and utilizes an illumination system that uses one or more LEDs, shifting optical elements, flipping masks, and/or aperture stops where the light can be delivered into the optical system on optical axis or off axis from center of optical system and return imaging path from the eye, creating artifacts in different locations on the eye image. Image processing is employed to detect and eliminate artifacts and masks from images. The apparatus can be used in combination with an OCT, microscope and can be disposed in a hand-held housing for hand-held use.

An apparatus and method for sensing, recording and analyzing data representative events of memory lapses and function uses a wearable device (e.g., wrist, armband, pendant) having sensors to detect user gestures and vital signs for transmission and analysis by a computation unit to predict the onset of cognitive impairment related diseases.
摘要:
An eye imaging apparatus to produce an image of an eye of a patient user is disclosed. The eye imaging apparatus may include a video camera, a slit lamp chinrest, a camera housing, a plurality of illumination source optics and a processing system. The eye imaging apparatus may also include a video camera, a plurality of video camera optics, a camera housing, a microscope assembly, a plurality of illumination source optics and a floor base. The eye imaging apparatus may be utilized in combination with one or more contrasting agents. The eye imaging apparatus may detect amyloid-beta plaque, amyloid or amyloid-beta peptide by a spectral signature.
摘要:
The present invention is an apparatus and method to produce an image of an eye of a patient that includes an optical head that includes imaging optics, illumination source optics and a camera housing with a perimeter that houses the video camera optics and the illumination source optics, a slit lamp chinrest and joystick assembly that includes an adjustable head support, a movable base, a joystick that adjusts a position of the camera housing relative to the head support and the housing support that mounts the video camera, a rubber eyecup that provides an interface between the camera housing and the patient's eye that protrudes outward from the perimeter and a computer system that analyzes images and data for the presence of amyloid in a retina, and other deposits and provides a diagnosis of macular degeneration, Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury, multiple concussive injury, neurodegenerative and other ocular disorders.
