摘要: A retina image template matching method is based on the registration and comparison between the images captured with portable low-cost fundus cameras (e.g., a consumer grade camera typically incorporated into a smartphone or tablet computer) and a baseline image. The method solves the challenges posed by registering small and low-quality retinal template images captured with such cameras. Our method combines dimension reduction methods with a mutual information (MI) based image registration technique. In particular, principle components analysis (PCA) and optionally block PCA are used as a dimension reduction method to localize the template image coarsely to the baseline image, then the resulting displacement parameters are used to initialize the MI metric optimization for registration of the template image with the closest region of the baseline image.

摘要: Techniques for tracking eye movement in an augmented reality system identify a plurality of base images of an object or a portion thereof. A search image may be generated based at least in part upon at least some of the plurality of base images. A deep learning result may be generated at least by performing a deep learning process on a base image using a neural network in a deep learning mode. A captured image may be localized at least by performing an image registration process on the captured image and the search image using a Kalman filter model and the deep learning result.

摘要: A system for the optical measurement of pH includes a light emitter to emit an excitation light, and a detector coupled to receive florescence light produced by a compound in a mouth of a patient in response to the excitation light. A controller is coupled to the detector, and the controller includes logic that when executed by the controller, causes the system to perform operations. The operations may include emitting the excitation light from the light emitter; measuring an intensity of the florescence light emitted from a surface of individual teeth in a plurality of teeth in the mouth; and determining, based on the intensity of the florescence light, one or more locations on the individual teeth likely to develop demineralization.

摘要: Methods and systems for acquiring and/or projecting images from and/or to a target area are provided. Such a method or system can include an optical fiber assembly which may be driven to scan the target area in a scan pattern. The optical fiber assembly may provide multiple effective light sources (e.g., via a plurality of optical fibers) that are axially staggered with respect to an optical system located between the optical fiber and the target area. The optical system may be operable to focus and/or redirect the light from the multiple light sources onto separate focal planes. A composite image may be generated based on light reflected from and/or projected onto the separate focal planes. The composite image may have an extended depth of focus or field spanning over a distance between the separate focal planes while maintaining or improving image resolution.

摘要: Methods and systems for detecting early stage dental caries and decays are provided. In particular, in an embodiment, laser-induced autofluorescence (AF) from multiple excitation wavelengths is obtained and analyzed. Endogenous fluorophores residing in the enamel naturally fluoresce when illuminated by wavelengths ranging from ultraviolet into the visible spectrum. The relative intensities of the AF emission changes between different excitation wavelengths when the enamel changes from healthy to demineralized. By taking a ratio of AF emission spectra integrals between different excitation wavelengths, a standard is created wherein changes in AF ratios within a tooth are quantified and serve as indicators of early stage enamel demineralization. The techniques described herein may be used in conjunction with a scanning fiber endoscope (SFE) to provide a reliable, safe and low-cost means for identifying dental caries or decays.

摘要: Visual-assisted guidance of an ultra-thin flexible endoscope to a predetermined region of interest within a lung during a bronchoscopy procedure. The region may be an opacity-identified by non-invasive imaging methods, such as high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) or as a malignant lung mass that was diagnosed in a previous examination. An embedded position sensor on the flexible endoscope indicates the position of the distal tip of the probe in a Cartesian coordinate system during the procedure. A visual display is continually updated, showing the present position and orientation of the marker in a 3-D graphical airway model generated from image reconstruction. The visual display also includes windows depicting a virtual fly-through perspective and real-time video images acquired at the head of the endoscope, which can be stored as data, with an audio or textual account.
