TL;DR: This paper proposes a hybrid Hessian/intensity based method to segment and quantify shape and diameter of the blood vessels innervating capillary beds that are imaged by functional OCT in vivo and believes that this method will play an important role in the quantification of micro-angiograms for microcirculation research in ophthalmology and diagnosing retinal eye diseases involved with micro Circulation.

TL;DR: The optical microangiography (OAMG) is capable of depth-resolved imaging of directional blood perfusion within both retinal and choroid in the posterior segment of human eye and shows superior performance of OMAG in providing functional images of capillary level microcirculation at different depths of retina and Choroid that correlate well with the standard retinal pathology.

TL;DR: A simplified analytical model of the complex OMAG is developed, suggesting that the OMAG signal is a product of the number of particles in an imaging voxel and the decorrelation of OCT (optical coherence tomography) signal, determined by flow velocity, inter-frame time interval, and wavelength of the light source.

TL;DR: The results suggest the potential application of OCT in providing high-resolution tomographic imaging of tissues in organ culture and cells grown in three-dimensional constructs in vitro, and suggest qualitative shifts in oxidation state are apparent using the technique.

TL;DR: The proposed registration and averaging algorithm significantly improved the visualization of CC with SS-OCTA and designed five indices for CC provide more options in the quantitative assessment of CC and are of great potentials in assisting the understanding of disease pathology, early diagnosis and treatment monitoring.
