Abstract

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), a functional extension of optical coherence tomography (OCT), is widely employed for high-resolution imaging of microvascular networks. However, due to the relatively low scan rate of OCT, the artifacts caused by the involuntary bulk motion of tissues severely impact the visualization of microvascular networks. This study proposes a fast motion correction method based on image feature matching for OCT microvascular images. First, the rigid motion-related mismatch between B-scans is compensated through the image feature matching based on the improved oriented FAST and rotated BRIEF algorithm. Then, the axial motion within A-scan lines in each B-scan image is corrected according to the displacement deviation between the detected boundaries achieved by the Scharr operator in a non-rigid transformation manner. Finally, an optimized intensity-based Doppler variance algorithm is developed to enhance the robustness of the OCTA imaging. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.

基于图像特征匹配的 OCT 微血管图像运动伪影校正。
光学相干断层血管成像(OCTA)是光学相干断层成像(OCT)的功能扩展,被广泛用于微血管网络的高分辨率成像。然而,由于 OCT 的扫描速率相对较低,组织的不自主运动造成的伪影严重影响了微血管网络的可视化。本研究提出了一种基于图像特征匹配的 OCT 微血管图像快速运动校正方法。首先,基于改进的定向 FAST 和旋转 BRIEF 算法,通过图像特征匹配补偿 B 扫描之间与刚性运动相关的不匹配。然后,根据 Scharr 算子以非刚性变换方式实现的检测边界之间的位移偏差,校正每个 B 扫描图像中 A 扫描线内的轴向运动。最后,开发了一种基于强度的多普勒方差优化算法,以增强 OCTA 成像的鲁棒性。实验结果证明了该方法的有效性。
