INTRODUCTION: Craniomaxillofacial surgeons require to estimate the orbital volume in a variety of clinical situations. This paper evaluates a new method based on software analysis of computerized tomography (CT) scan data. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Five dried skulls with prosthetic globes and periorbita were non-helically scanned in an Elscint 2400 CT scanner. Images obtained were processed using the "Analyze" software package and results compared to the volume of the intraorbital prosthesis as determined by a volume displacement gravimetric method. RESULTS: Estimates of volume produced by the software varied from the gold standard by 0.06-50.44%, with a mean error of 8.8%. CONCLUSION: Despite the use of a variety of scan protocols it was not possible to obtain results with "Analyze" software which were sufficiently accurate for clinical use.
A novel, to our knowledge, adaptive optical imaging system for high-resolution retinal imaging is described. The system is based on a feedback interferometer, in which two-dimensional output fringe intensity from a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with large radial shear is fed back, with the help of a video projector connected with a CCD camera, to an optically addressed phase-only liquid-crystal spatial light modulator. Experiments to verify the system performance have been conducted by use of an artificial eye consisting of a lens, an aberration plate, and a resolution test target. We observed that an image of the test target (mimicking a retina) blurred by the aberration plate (mimicking ocular aberrations) was successfully restored immediately after our adaptive optics system was activated.
