Five degrees-of-freedom mechanical arm with remote center of motion (RCM) device for volumetric optical coherence tomography (OCT) retinal imaging.
Biomedical optics express(2024)
摘要
Handheld optical coherence tomography (HH-OCT) is gaining popularity for diagnosing retinal diseases in neonates (e.g. retinopathy of prematurity). Diagnosis accuracy is degraded by hand tremor and patient motion when using commercially available handheld retinal OCT probes. This work presents a low-cost arm designed to address ergonomic challenges of holding a commercial OCT probe and alleviating hand tremor. Experiments with a phantom eye show enhanced geometric uniformity and volumetric accuracy when obtaining OCT scans with our device compared to handheld imaging approaches. An in-vivo porcine volumetric image was also obtained with the mechanical arm demonstrating clinical deployability.
