Curvature of field transformation of OCT images during vitreoretinal surgery

Abstract:

Curvature of field transformation of OCT images during ophthalmic surgery may be performed with an OCT scanning controller that interfaces to an OCT scanner used with a surgical microscope. Real-time OCT images may be acquired by the OCT scanner, while an anamorphic transformation is applied to the OCT images to match the curvature of field for optical images viewed using the surgical microscope. The transformed OCT images may be displayed during surgery.
