项目摘要
本提案的总体目标是证明一种新方法的临床可行性
虽然脑组织中淀粉样斑块的沉积是最明显的病理改变,
AD的指标,它只能在尸检或正电子发射断层扫描(PET)
成像,这可能非常昂贵。因此,最广泛使用的方法
诊断AD仍然是认知障碍的临床识别,
只有在排除了痴呆症的其他原因后才能提供可能的诊断。
由于视神经和视网膜是中枢神经系统的延伸,
研究试图将视网膜特征与疾病的发作联系起来。使用光学
相干断层扫描(OCT),已经观察到视网膜变薄与视网膜病变之间的相关性。

为了实现这一目标,我们寻求发展角分辨低相干干涉术(a/LCI)

英文摘要
Project Summary
The overall objective of this proposal is to demonstrate the clinical feasibility of a novel method
Although deposition of amyloid plaques in brain tissue is the clearest pathological
indicator of AD, it can only be detected during autopsy or positron emission tomography (PET)
imaging, which can be prohibitively expensive. As a result, the most widely used approach for
diagnosing AD continues to be the clinical recognition of cognitive impairment, a subjective
evaluation which only provides probable diagnosis when other causes of dementia are eliminated.
Because the optic nerve and retina are extensions of the central nervous system, several
investigations to seek have sought to link retinal features with onset of the disease. Using optical
coherence tomography (OCT), a correlation has been observed between thinning of the retinal
nerve fiber layer and AD but this feature can also indicate other diseases. Instead, we propose
to develop a diagnostic based on measuring structural features in the various layers of the retina,
specifically to identify a diagnostic metric of AD that is potentially distinct from other pathologies.
To meet this objective, we seek to develop angle-resolved low coherence interferometry (a/LCI)
for clinical measurement of structural features of retinal layers. a/LCI is a light scattering method
that combines the sub-cellular sensitivity of light scattering with the depth resolution of OCT. It
has been shown to detect precancerous cells in esophagus and cervix using in vivo depth
resolved measurements of nuclear morphology. Rather than imaging the cellular structure of the
retina directly, we instead propose to use a/LCI to measure the micron-scale structural
characteristics of retinal layers. Preliminary data shows that a/LCI measurements of the
organization of these structures correlates with presence of AD in a murine model. The following
Specific Aims are proposed: 1. Implement integrated a/LCI & OCT system for in vivo studies of
the human retina. 2. Characterize retinal features in AD patients with a/LCI & OCT. This study
will confirm measurements from the animal model and provide data for establishing biomarkers
of AD in humans. 3. Conduct data analysis for biomarker development using morphological
descriptors and machine learning. 4. Perform in vivo prospective studies in AD patients to validate
biomarkers of structural changes as predictive of disease. Upon completion of this project, we will
have shown feasibility and provided justification for future development of a combined a/LCI &
OCT system for clinical screening for AD.
