Abstract
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive method for retinal imaging. In this work, we present an in vivo human retinal microvascular network measurement by an intensity-based Doppler variance (IBDV) based on sweptsource OCT. In addition, an automatic three-dimensional (3-D) segmentation method was used for segmenting intraretinal layers. The microvascular networks were divided into six layers by visualizing of each individual layer with enhanced imaging contrast. This method has potential for earlier diagnosis and precise monitoring in retinal vascular diseases.
