Method and apparatus for obtaining a three-dimensional map of tympanic membrane thickness

Stephen A Boppart (Inventor), Paritosh Pande (Inventor)

Research output: Patent

Abstract

Methods and apparatus for combining a low coherence interferometry (LCI) technique for single-point thickness measurement with videootoscopy for recording the image of a tissue such as the tympanic membrane (TM). TM thickness distribution maps are obtained by mapping the LCI imaging sites onto an anatomically accurate wide-field image of the TM, generated by mosaicking a sequence of multiple small field-of-view video-otoscopy images.
