In this work, we demonstrate the feasibility of TD-DOT using a nanosecond laser source and measurements using a standard digital oscilloscope. For this, we constructed a prototype TD-DOT experimental system utilising a high-energy nanosecond Nd:YAG laser combined with a high-bandwidth oscilloscope. The system was used to image an optical phantom. The experiment verified that both absorbing and scattering objects can be simultaneously reconstructed with nanosecond TD-DOT.","PeriodicalId":278089,"journal":{"name":"European Conference on Biomedical Optics","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122891986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose an alternative method based on evaluating the average path length traveled by all photons injected within the subvolume. Application examples are given. This method also works for a zero absorption coefficient and for a nonconstant spatial distribution of the absorption coefficient within the subvolume. The proposed approach is a re-visitation of a well-known method applied to nuclear and radiation physics. The results obtained show that a potential advantage of the proposed method is that it can improve the convergence of Monte Carlo simulations. Indeed, when calculating the fluence in a region of interest with the proposed method, all photons passing through the region are considered. Whereas with the traditional approach, only absorbed\" photons are considered. In the latter case, this can produce a poorer Monte Carlo statistic for the same number of photons launched.","PeriodicalId":278089,"journal":{"name":"European Conference on Biomedical Optics","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128654576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such metrices present a necessary steppingstone in the development of digital histology, facilitating both longitudinal as well as large screening studies through introduction of quantitative and rapidly computable biomarkers. The samples were collected from a study including three different experimental groups receiving different intraperitoneal injections; a control group, which received a phosphate-buffered saline solution, a pure model group, receiving chlorhexidine gluconate to induce peritonitis, and a treated model group, which was additionally administered resolvin D1. We present an approach for analysis of hematoxylin and eosin stained histological slices from this study. First, hyperspectral microscopy images of the slides are acquired, and Beer-Lambert law is used to calculate relative volume fraction maps of both stains. Following this decomposition, a Fourier space representation of the eosin cellular image is calculated. Differences between healthy and diseased subjects, which are attributed to necrosis and edema, are then quantified in the Fourier space through the ellipticity of spatial frequency distribution. The proposed metric is shown to significantly discriminate between the healthy and diseased subject (p=0.02) and is additionally strongly linearly correlated to scattering parameter b on macroscopic scale observed in our previous analysis employing macroscopic imaging of whole abdominal walls (linear correlation coefficient of -0.9).","PeriodicalId":278089,"journal":{"name":"European Conference on Biomedical Optics","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126184248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
