Abstract

Two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) imaging of the retina is a developing technique that provides non-invasive compound-specific measurements from the retina. In this report, we demonstrate high-resolution TPEF imaging of the mouse retina using sensorless adaptive optics (SAO) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). A single near-infrared light source was used for simultaneous multi-modal imaging with OCT and TPEF. The image-based SAO could be performed using the en face OCT or the TPEF for aberration correction. Our results demonstrate OCT and TPEF for angiography. Also, we demonstrate non-invasive cellular-resolution imaging of fluorescently labelled cells and the Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) mosaic.
