Super Resolution Spectral Fundus Imager

描述：反射图像由全光谱的颜色组成 信息。在肉眼看来微妙的差异可以显示为 在查看详细的频谱时意义重大。此外，波长 (如紫外光和红外线)，是肉眼看不见的，可以分析 通过高光谱成像。 研究人员建议开发高光谱成像仪和自适应光学 将能够检测和区分细微的眼底异常 用更传统的方法是困难的或不可能的。他们举了一个例子， 在一些试验数据中区分硬性和软性干酪的能力。 这可能在临床上有用，因为AMD的最早迹象是 以小而不清的软黄褐色为特征。浓烈的墨水不是 被认为是一个重要的风险因素。 建议的商业应用：不可用

DESCRIPTION: Reflective images are made up of a full spectrum of color information. Differences that appear subtle to the human eye can be shown to be significant when looking at the detailed spectrum. In addition, wavelengths (such as U.V. and I.R.), which are invisible to the human eye, can be analyzed by hyperspectral imaging. The investigators propose to develop a hyperspectral imager and adaptive optics that will be able to detect and differentiate subtle fundus abnormalities that are difficult or impossible by more traditional means. They use as an example, the ability to distinguish between hard and soft drusen in some pilot data. This might be clinically useful since the earliest signs of AMD are characterized by small poorly defined soft drusen. Hard drusen is not considered to be a significant risk factor.
