Intravascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables imaging of the three-dimensional (3D) microstructure of a blood vessel wall. While 3D vascular visualization provides detailed information of the vessel wall and intraluminal structures, a longitudinal imaging pitch that is several times bigger than the imaging resolution of the system has limited true high-resolution 3D imaging. In this paper we demonstrate high-speed intravascular OCT in vivo, acquiring images at a rate of 350 frames per second. A 47-mm-long rabbit aorta was imaged in 3.7 seconds, after a short flush with contrast agent. The longitudinal imaging pitch was 34 micrometers, comparable to the transverse imaging resolution of the system. Three-dimensional volume rendering showed greatly enhanced visualization of tissue microstructure and stent struts, relative to what is provided by conventional intravascular imaging speeds.

Integral imaging is a promising technology for 3D imaging and display. Many parameters affect the performance of 3D integral imaging systems. Enhanced system performance is acquired by optimization of these system parameters with respect to defined performance metrics. In this paper, we present an approach to optimize the performance of 3D integral imaging system in terms of performance metrics under fixed resource constraints. In this analysis, system parameters such as lens numerical aperture, pitch between image sensors, the number of image sensors, the pixel size, and the number of pixels are determined to optimize performance metrics. Wave optics is utilized to describe the imaging process.

Microfluidic devices can offer precise control for a verity of tasks involving biological specimen. In this paper, we propose an integrated system consisting of a microfluidic device along with a digital holographic microscope and present three-dimensional (3D) sensing and segmentation of biological microorganisms. When the individual microorganisms are inputted into the microfluidic channel, the holographic microscope records their holograms. The holograms are computationally reconstructed in 3D using Fresnel transform and the reconstructed phase images are used to search the position of microorganisms. Optical experiments are carried out and experimental results are presented to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed system.

In this paper, we introduced a near infrared fluorescence imaging system that has long working distance and analyzed on the effects of measurement variables such as gain, exposure time, working distance, magnification. Fluorescence signal intensity is growing up according to exposure time and magnification increasing, and it is getting stronger according to increase of gain, but the background signal intensity is getting stronger together. It causes low SBR. Due to a laser irradiation method, laser intensity distribution of the introduced system is not uniform and it makes fluorescence signal weak. So, we proposed a solution.

Integral imaging is considered as a next-generation 3D display which can display 3d imaging in space using lens array. The performance of integral imaging systems depends on several factors including display panel, lens array, imaging devices and so on. In this paper, we develop a unifying framework to evaluate the resolution of integral imaging systems under fixed resource constraints. The proposed framework enables one to optimize the system performance. To show the feasibility of the proposed method, we carry out Monte Carlo simulations based on this framework and present the results.

In this paper, we propose a synthetic aperture radar based on FMCW using a nonlinear radar platform. we construct a nonlinear radar platform with different transmit and receive frequencies using FMCW signals. The platform moves along a 1.5 m path to acquire second harmonics signals, implementing a nonlinear SAR (synthetic aperture radar). Multiple nonlinear targets were placed in an indoor multipath environment with linear objects to detect weak second harmonics. After undergoing the SAR focusing precess, a 2D hamming window was applied to enhance the focusing performance.
