Spatial mapping of corneal biomechanical properties using wave-based optical coherence elastography.
Journal of biophotonics(2024)
摘要
Quantifying the mechanical properties of the cornea can provide valuable insights into the occurrence and progression of keratoconus, as well as the effectiveness of corneal crosslinking surgery. This study presents a non-contact and non-invasive wave-based optical coherence elastography system that utilizes air-pulse stimulation to create a two-dimensional map of corneal elasticity. Homogeneous and dual concentration phantoms were measured with the sampling of 25 × 25 points over a 6.6 × 6.6 mm2 area, to verify the measurement capability for elastic mapping and the spatial resolution (0.91 mm). The velocity of elastic waves distribution of porcine corneas before and after corneal crosslinking surgery were further mapped, showing a significant change in biomechanics in crosslinked region. This system features non-invasiveness and high resolution, holding great potential for application in ophthalmic clinics.
