Description
本出願は2004年8月6日に出願された、米国特許出願第60/599,809号からの優先権を主張するものであり、その全体の開示はここに参照により組み込まれたものとする。本出願はまた、米国特許公開公報第2000/0198457号にも関連し、その全体の開示はここに参照により組み込まれたものとする。
発明の分野
本発明は一般的には、光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法(「OCT」)を使用する撮像に関し、特に、OCT技術を使用して試料中の少なくとも1つの位置を決定できる方法(処理)、システム、およびソフトウェア装置に関する。
光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法(「OCT」)は、光の基準ビームと、試料から反射された検出ビームの間の干渉を測定可能な撮像技術である。従来の時間領域OCTの詳細なシステムの記述は、Huangその他による、「光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法(Optical coherence tomography)」 Science 254(5035),1178−81(1991)に開示されている。光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法(「OCT」)のスペクトル領域変形例は、スペクトル領域光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法(「SD−OCT」)と呼ばれるが、超高解像度の眼病用撮像用に適している技術である。この技術は、Cense,B.その他による、「スペクトル領域光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法を使用する超高解像度高速網膜撮像法(Ultrahigh−resolution high−speed retinal imaging using spectral−domain optical coherence tomography)」,Optics Express,2004および国際特許公開(International Patent Publication)WO 03/062802号に記載されている。更に、2002年10月16日に出願された米国特許出願第10/272,171号の、Wojtkowskiその他による、「フーリエ領域光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法による試験管内の人間の網膜撮像(In Vivo Human Retinal Imaging by Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography)」,Journal of Biomedical Optics,2002,7(3),pp.457−463,Nassifその他による「超高速スペクトル領域光学コヒーレンス断層撮影法による生体内における人間の網膜撮像(In Vivo Human Retinal Imaging by Utrahigh−Speed Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography)」,Optics Letters,2004,29(5),pp.480−482もまたこの主題事項に関連している。また、光学周波数領域干渉計使用法(OFDI)設定(Yun,S.H.その他による「高速光学周波数領域撮像(High−Speed Optical Frequency−Domain Imaging)」,Optics Express,2003,11(22),pp.
2953−2963に記載されているように)や、国際公開WO 03/062802号、および2004年10月27日に出願された米国特許出願第60/514,769号は更に、本発明の主題事項に関連している。
この値は、第1オフセット電圧に加えることができ、更新された値は、データのまとまりの取得の間に、RSODに送信される。式(2)は、バネを律するフックの法則に類似しており、ここで、Rはバネ定数に等しいとすることができる。Rが取得中に動的に制御できるという事実により、患者の動きを最適に抑えるための適切なパラメータの決定が可能となる。範囲測定手順は、チェックマーク制御が停止されるまで各データのまとまりに対して継続され、ソフトウェアはそれが再度起動されたときにその新しい場所で再固定する。
