济易持有奥斯陆的未决专利。其他作者声明没有竞争的财政利益。

在这里, 我们已经描述了奥斯陆, 一个在体内容积荧光视网膜成像技术与 FOV 超过了30°。与目前眼科护理成像方法标准的 OCT 相比, 奥斯陆提供了类似的3D 成像能力, 但也允许了 oct 不敏感的荧光对比度。奥斯陆的优势在于它只需要一个光栅扫描, 从而允许 OCT 的无缝组合, 为结构和荧光容积成像提供两种互补技术。
在该协议中, 获得良好图像质量的关键是大鼠眼的清晰度。如果奥斯陆图像被遮蔽, 检查是否有白内障形成。氯胺酮/甲苯噻嗪麻醉、角膜干燥、蓝光照射等几个因素会导致白内障的形成, 这将显著恶化图像质量。预防白内障, 避免连续暴露在蓝光中超过2分钟;至少每分钟涂抹一次人工眼泪, 以防止角膜干燥;并允许眼睛休息至少30秒的成像部分通过阻止光。
我们设想, 奥斯陆可以显著影响荧光成像的临床实践。结果表明, 深度分辨力能有效地消除外源视网膜的信号, 使高对比度的容积法图像下降到单毛细管水平, 这是传统斯洛伐克所无法获得的。显着改善的图像清晰度将允许更灵敏的检测和量化的血-视网膜屏障破坏和视网膜毛细血管渗漏, 标志性黄斑水肿在 DR 和其他脉络膜视网膜血管疾病。
在目前的系统中, CCD 摄像机的速度是每秒20帧, 导致 > 25 秒的采集时间。一个科学的 CMOS 相机将大大提高系统的速度。荧光检测具有与光照相分离的不同光路。在今后的设计中使用相同的光路进行光照和检测, 将简化系统。综述了一种新型的容积式视网膜成像多模态平台, 即斜扫描激光检眼镜 (奥斯陆)。应用奥斯陆和同时光学相干层析成像 (OCT) 对大鼠视网膜的 FOV 角进行体外成像。

眼科和视觉科学从现代光学成像技术中受益很大, 因为视网膜可以很容易地接触到光。荧光视网膜成像是诊断和治疗脉络膜视网膜血管疾病的重要工具, 如糖尿病视网膜病变 (DR) 和年龄相关的黄斑变性 (AMD), 这两者都是导致美国失明的主要原因。
然而, 利用荧光成像技术获得大视场 (FOV)、三维 (3D) 视网膜成像仍具有挑战性。眼底摄影没有深度分辨能力, 也不排斥漫射光。因此, 不同深度的信号混合可以降低图像质量。扫描激光检眼镜 (斯洛伐克) 和共焦斯洛伐克 (cSLO) 可通过共聚焦浇口1降低散射光的影响。然而, 由于其聚焦深度的限制, 斯洛伐克或 cSLO 很难获得3D 人的视网膜图像。自适应光学斯洛伐克 (AOSLO) 可以通过校正人眼所引入的波前畸变来提供高超的分辨率和对比度。然而, AOSLO 仍然需要 z 堆叠的容积成像2。光学相干层析成像 (oct)3和 oct 血管造影 (奥克塔) 系统克服这些限制, 提供三维 (3D) 解剖和血管图像 4,5,6, 但无染料的性质OCT 不能可视化泄漏指示血管功能障碍。
该协议描述了一种新的3D 容量荧光视网膜成像多模态平台, 即斜扫描激光检眼镜 (奥斯陆)。在这个成像系统中, 斜扫描是由鸽子尾滑块产生的, 最后的成像系统以角度对齐, 以检测荧光剖面图像。该系统采用激光扫描方法, 这些技术允许与 OCT 简单地结合, 作为一个互补的体积结构成像方式。目前, 大鼠视网膜的深度分辨率约为25µm, 视野为30°。从根本上说, 奥斯陆允许荧光版的 oct, 并可以同时结合 oct 和奥克塔在一个大 FOV。
在本议定书中, 我们将介绍奥斯陆的设置、对准和构造方法、大鼠视网膜活体成像方法和代表性结果。

multimodal volumetric retinal imaging by oblique scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (oslo) and optical coherence tomography (oct)

虽然荧光成像在眼科广泛应用, 但大视野 (FOV) 三维 (3D) 荧光视网膜图像仍然是一个巨大的挑战与最新的视网膜成像方式, 因为他们需要 z 叠加编译容量数据集。新的光学相干层析成像 (oct) 和 oct 血管造影 (奥克塔) 系统克服了这些限制, 提供三维 (3D) 解剖和血管图像, 但 OCT 的无染料性质不能想象泄漏指示血管功能 障碍。该协议描述了一种新的斜扫描激光检眼镜 (奥斯陆) 技术, 提供3D 容量荧光视网膜成像。成像系统的设置产生斜扫描的鸽子尾巴滑块, 并使最终成像系统的角度, 以检测荧光横断面图像。该系统采用激光扫描方法, 因此, 允许简单地将 OCT 作为互补容积结构成像模式。对大鼠视网膜的活体成像进行了演示。荧光素溶液是静脉注射注射, 以产生容量荧光素血管造影 (vFA)。

图 4a显示了大鼠视网膜的横断面 OCT 图像。图 4b-4c显示同一时间获得的奥克塔和奥斯陆 vFA 相同的视网膜横断面图像。奥斯陆使横断面法类似于 OCT B 扫描。与奥克塔相比, 奥斯陆 vFA 横断面图像清楚地识别出神经纤维层 (NFL) 和神经节细胞层 (协鑫) 中的血管, 以及外层网状层 (OPL) 中的毛细血管。图 4d和4g显示了奥克塔和奥斯陆 vFA 图像的表层。与奥克塔不同, 奥斯陆 vFA 图像 (图 4g) 利用荧光发射对比度避免了运动工件 (图 4d中的垂直条纹)。通过比较奥斯陆 vFA (图 4e) 和奥克塔 (图 4h) 在视网膜中间层的图像, 垂直跳水船清楚地显示在奥斯陆 FA 图像, 但不明显在奥克塔。这大概是因为血流速度或血管定向会影响奥克塔信号, 而不是奥斯陆荧光对比度。
图 4f和4i显示了深毛细血管丛层内的图像。在奥斯陆 vFA 蓝色箭头指出的区域比奥克塔在脉管中有更好的对比。奥斯陆的白色箭头指出的静脉的大小比奥克塔的大。总的来说, 奥斯陆 vFA 图像比奥克塔更准确地与实际的血管形态学相似, 因为它不依赖于血流速度或血管方向。视频 1显示了从奥斯陆和奥克塔两个同时获得的容量数据集的en 面飞行。

Doppler Optical Coherence Tomography of Retinal Circulation

Noncontact retinal blood flow measurements are performed with a Fourier domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) system using a circumpapillary double circular scan (CDCS) that scans around the optic nerve head at 3.40 mm and 3.75 mm diameters. The double concentric circles are performed 6 times consecutively over 2 sec. The CDCS scan is saved with Doppler shift information from which flow can be calculated. The standard clinical protocol calls for 3 CDCS scans made with the OCT beam passing through the superonasal edge of the pupil and 3 CDCS scan through the inferonal pupil. This double-angle protocol ensures that acceptable Doppler angle is obtained on each retinal branch vessel in at least 1 scan. The CDCS scan data, a 3-dimensional volumetric OCT scan of the optic disc scan, and a color photograph of the optic disc are used together to obtain retinal blood flow measurement on an eye. We have developed a blood flow measurement software called "Doppler optical coherence tomography of retinal circulation" (DOCTORC). This semi-automated software is used to measure total retinal blood flow, vessel cross section area, and average blood velocity. The flow of each vessel is calculated from the Doppler shift in the vessel cross-sectional area and the Doppler angle between the vessel and the OCT beam. Total retinal blood flow measurement is summed from the veins around the optic disc. The results obtained at our Doppler OCT reading center showed good reproducibility between graders and methods (&lt;10%). Total retinal blood flow could be useful in the management of glaucoma, other retinal diseases, and retinal diseases. In glaucoma patients, OCT retinal blood flow measurement was highly correlated with visual field loss (R2&gt;0.57 with visual field pattern deviation). Doppler OCT is a new method to perform rapid, noncontact, and repeatable measurement of total retinal blood flow using widely available Fourier-domain OCT instrumentation. This new technology may improve the practicality of making these measurements in clinical studies and routine clinical practice.

Total retinal blood flow is measured by Doppler optical coherence tomography and semi-automated grading software.

Integrated Photoacoustic Ophthalmoscopy and Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography

Both the clinical diagnosis and fundamental investigation of major ocular diseases greatly benefit from various non-invasive ophthalmic imaging technologies. Existing retinal imaging modalities, such as fundus photography1, confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (cSLO)2, and optical coherence tomography (OCT)3, have significant contributions in monitoring disease onsets and progressions, and developing new therapeutic strategies. However, they predominantly rely on the back-reflected photons from the retina. As a consequence, the optical absorption properties of the retina, which are usually strongly associated with retinal pathophysiology status, are inaccessible by the traditional imaging technologies.
Photoacoustic ophthalmoscopy (PAOM) is an emerging retinal imaging modality that permits the detection of the optical absorption contrasts in the eye with a high sensitivity4-7 . In PAOM nanosecond laser pulses are delivered through the pupil and scanned across the posterior eye to induce photoacoustic (PA) signals, which are detected by an unfocused ultrasonic transducer attached to the eyelid. Because of the strong optical absorption of hemoglobin and melanin, PAOM is capable of non-invasively imaging the retinal and choroidal vasculatures, and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) melanin at high contrasts 6,7. More importantly, based on the well-developed spectroscopic photoacoustic imaging5,8 , PAOM has the potential to map the hemoglobin oxygen saturation in retinal vessels, which can be critical in studying the physiology and pathology of several blinding diseases 9 such as diabetic retinopathy and neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
Moreover, being the only existing optical-absorption-based ophthalmic imaging modality, PAOM can be integrated with well-established clinical ophthalmic imaging techniques to achieve more comprehensive anatomic and functional evaluations of the eye based on multiple optical contrasts6,10 . In this work, we integrate PAOM and spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) for simultaneously in vivo retinal imaging of rat, where both optical absorption and scattering properties of the retina are revealed. The system configuration, system alignment and imaging acquisition are presented.

Photoacoustic ophthalmology (PAOM), an optical-absorption-based imaging modality, provides the complementary evaluation of the retina to the currently available ophthalmic imaging technologies. We report the using of PAOM integrated with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) for simultaneous multimodal retinal imaging in rats.

Optical Coherence Tomography: Imaging Mouse Retinal Ganglion Cells In Vivo

Structural changes in the retina are common manifestations of ophthalmic diseases. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables their identification in vivo&#8212;rapidly, repetitively, and at a high resolution. This protocol describes OCT imaging in the mouse retina as a powerful tool to study optic neuropathies (OPN). The OCT system is an interferometry-based, non-invasive alternative to common post mortem histological assays. It provides a fast and accurate assessment of retinal thickness, allowing the possibility to track changes, such as retinal thinning or thickening. We present the imaging process and analysis with the example of the Opa1delTTAG mouse line. Three types of scans are proposed, with two quantification methods: standard and homemade calipers. The latter is best for use on the peripapillary retina during radial scans; being more precise, is preferable for analyzing thinner structures. All approaches described here are designed for retinal ganglion cells (RGC) but are easily adaptable to other cell populations. In conclusion, OCT is efficient in mouse model phenotyping and has the potential to be used for the reliable evaluation of therapeutic interventions.

In vivo Structural Assessments of Ocular Disease in Rodent Models using Optical Coherence Tomography

Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is useful for visualizing retinal and ocular structures in vivo. In research, SD-OCT is a valuable tool to evaluate and characterize changes in a variety of retinal and ocular disease and injury models. In light induced retinal degeneration models, SD-OCT can be used to track thinning of the photoreceptor layer over time. In glaucoma models, SD-OCT can be used to monitor decreased retinal nerve fiber layer and total retinal thickness and to observe optic nerve cupping after inducing ocular hypertension. In diabetic rodents, SD-OCT has helped researchers observe decreased total retinal thickness as well as decreased thickness of specific retinal layers, particularly the retinal nerve fiber layer with disease progression. In mouse models of myopia, SD-OCT can be used to evaluate axial parameters, such as axial length changes. Advantages of SD-OCT include in vivo imaging of ocular structures, the ability to quantitatively track changes in ocular dimensions over time, and its rapid scanning speed and high resolution. Here, we detail the methods of SD-OCT and show examples of its use in our laboratory in models of retinal degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and myopia. Methods include anesthesia, SD-OCT imaging, and processing of the images for thickness measurements.

Here, we describe the use of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) to visualize retinal and ocular structures in vivo in models of retinal degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and myopia.

Ultrahigh Resolution Mouse Optical Coherence Tomography to Aid Intraocular Injection in Retinal Gene Therapy Research

HR-SD-OCT is utilized to monitor the progression of photoreceptor degeneration in live mouse models, assess the delivery of therapeutic agents into the subretinal space, and to evaluate toxicity and efficacy in vivo. HR-SD-OCT uses near infrared light (800-880 nm) and has optics specifically designed for the unique optics of the mouse eye with sub-2-micron axial resolution. Transgenic mouse models of outer retinal (photoreceptor) degeneration and controls were imaged to assess the disease progression. Pulled glass microneedles were used to deliver sub retinal injections of adeno-associated virus (AAV) or nanoparticles (NP) via a trans-scleral and trans-choroidal approach. Careful positioning of the needle into the subretinal space was required prior to a calibrated pressure injection, which delivers fluid into the sub retinal space. Real time subretinal surgery was conducted on our retinal imaging system (RIS). HR-SD-OCT demonstrated progressive uniform retinal degeneration due to expression of a toxic mutant human mutant rhodopsin (P347S) (RHOP347S) transgene in mice. HR-SD-OCT allows rigorous quantification of all the retinal layers. Outer nuclear layer (ONL) thickness and photoreceptor outer segment length (OSL) measurements correlate with photoreceptor vitality, degeneration, or rescue. The RIS delivery system allows real-time visualization of subretinal injections in neonatal (~P10-14) or adult mice, and HR-SD-OCT immediately determines success of delivery and maps areal extent. HR-SD-OCT is a powerful tool that can evaluate the success of subretinal surgery in mice, in addition to measuring vitality of photoreceptors in vivo. HR-SD-OCT can also be used to identify uniform animal cohorts to evaluate the extent of retinal degeneration, toxicity, and therapeutic rescue in preclinical gene therapy research studies.

Here we demonstrate a novel approach to using high resolution spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (HR-SD-OCT) to assist delivery of gene therapy agents into the subretinal space, assess its areal coverage, and characterize photoreceptor vitality.

In Vivo Imaging of Cx3cr1gfp/gfp Reporter Mice with Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography and Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscopy

Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) are extensively used in experimental ophthalmology. In the present protocol, mice expressing green fluorescent protein (gfp) under the promoter of Cx3cr1 (BALB/c-Cx3cr1gfp/gfp) were used to image microglia cells in vivo in the retina. Microglia are resident macrophages of the retina and have been implicated in several retinal diseases1,2,3,4,5,6. This protocol provides a detailed approach for generation of retinal B-scans, with SD-OCT, and imaging of microglia cell distribution in Cx3cr1gfp/gfp mice with SLO in vivo, using an ophthalmic imaging platform system. The protocol can be used in several reporter mouse lines. However, there are some limitations to the protocol presented here. First, both SLO and SD-OCT, when used in the high-resolution mode, collect data with high axial resolution but the lateral resolution is lower (3.5 &#181;m and 6 &#181;m, respectively). Moreover, the focus and saturation level in SLO is highly dependent on parameter selection and correct alignment of the eye. Additionally, using devices designed for human patients in mice is challenging due to the higher total optical power of the mouse eye compared to the human eye; this can lead to lateral magnification inaccuracies7, which are also dependent on the magnification by the mouse lens among others. However, despite that the axial scan position is dependent upon lateral magnification, the axial SD-OCT measurements are accurate8.

Using Optical Coherence Tomography and Optokinetic Response As Structural and Functional Visual System Readouts in Mice and Rats

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a fast, non-invasive, interferometric technique allowing high-resolution retinal imaging. It is an ideal tool for the investigation of processes of neurodegeneration, neuroprotection and neuro-repair involving the visual system, as these often correlate well with retinal changes. As a functional readout, visually evoked compensatory eye and head movements are commonly used in experimental models involving the visual function. Combining both techniques allows a quantitative in vivo investigation of structure and function, which can be used to investigate the pathological conditions or to evaluate the potential of novel therapeutics. A great benefit of the presented techniques is the possibility to perform longitudinal analyses allowing the investigation of dynamic processes, reducing variability and cuts down the number of animals needed for the experiments. The protocol described aims to provide a manual for acquisition and analysis of high quality retinal scans of mice and rats using a low cost customized holder with an option to deliver inhalational anesthesia. Additionally, the proposed guide is intended as an instructional manual for researchers using optokinetic response (OKR) analysis in rodents, which can be adapted to their specific needs and interests.

A detailed protocol for the assessment of structural and visual readouts in rodents by optical coherence tomography and optokinetic response is presented. The results provide valuable insights for ophthalmologic as well as neurologic research.

Alignment of Visible-Light Optical Coherence Tomography Fibergrams with Confocal Images of the Same Mouse Retina

In recent years, in vivo retinal imaging, which provides non-invasive, real-time, and longitudinal information about biological systems and processes, has been increasingly applied to obtain an objective assessment of neural damage in eye diseases. Ex vivo confocal imaging of the same retina is often necessary to validate the in vivo findings especially in animal research. In this study, we demonstrated a method for aligning an ex vivo confocal image of the mouse retina with its in vivo images. A new clinical-ready imaging technology called visible light optical coherence tomography fibergraphy (vis-OCTF) was applied to acquire in vivo images of the mouse retina. We then performed the confocal imaging of the same retina as the &#34;gold standard&#34; to validate the in vivo vis-OCTF images. This study not only enables further investigation of the molecular and cellular mechanisms but also establishes a foundation for a sensitive and objective evaluation of neural damage in vivo.
