    Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer-implemented method of generating a visualization of wavelength-dependent surface characteristics is provided. A computing device receives an input image captured by a camera, wherein the input image includes information in a low-dimensional color space. The computing device processes the input image to determine spectrum band information in a high-dimensional color space that corresponds to the input image. The computing device extracts subtractive information from the spectrum band information to obtain wavelength-dependent surface characteristic information, The computing device generates the visualization using the wavelength-dependent surface characteristic information. In some embodiments, the computing device may be a smartphone.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for enhancing quality of a flow image of a sample of a subject are provided. The method comprises acquiring a first flow image from a plurality of first OMAG scans of the sample, and acquiring a structure image from a second OMAG scan of the sample. Data based on pixel intensity values from the flow image and pixel intensity values from the structure image are then plotted onto a graph and from the graph, may be differentiated into a first data group representing static structure signals and a second data group representing flow signals. The method then includes suppressing pixels in the flow image corresponding to the first data group. The flow signal may also be multiplied by a weighting factor to suppress artifacts in the image.

    Abstract: The present technology relates generally to systems and methods for in vivo visualization of lymphatic vessels. A system includes an optical coherence tomography (OCT) device and a computing device coupled to the OCT device configured to cause the OCT device to perform an OCT scan, generate image data in response to the OCT scan, and apply an eigendecomposition filter to the image data to produce processed image data. Alternatively or in addition, the computing device can compensate for scattering attenuation along an optical axis of the OCT scan in the image data set to generate compensated image data, enhance contrast of the compensated image data along a cross-section substantially orthogonal to the optical axis to generate contrast-enhanced image data, and identify at least one lymphatic vessel in the image data.
