Abstract Purpose To describe the feasibility of peripheral OCT imaging in retinal diseases using a novel full-field device. Methods A total of 134 consecutive eyes were referred and imaged on the Optos Silverstone swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) (Optos PLC; Dunfermline, UK). Scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) images and the associated SS-OCT images were obtained in the posterior pole, mid-periphery or far periphery based on the nature of the referral and on new areas of interest observed in the optomap images at the time of imaging. Results A total of 134 eyes (96 patients) were enrolled in the study. One hundred and twenty-five eyes (91 patients) with 38 retinal pathologies were prospectively assessed and 9 eyes (5 patients) were excluded due to incomplete image acquisition. The average age of the subjects was 54 years (range 21–92 years). Thirty-nine out of 125 eyes (31%) had macular pathologies. Eighty-six out of 125 eyes (69%) had peripheral only pathologies, an area which cannot be visualized by standard OCT devices with a 50 degree field-of-view. Conclusions The ability to capture peripheral pathologies using an integrated SLO-UWF imaging with full-field swept-source provided high-grade anatomical insight that confirmed the medical and surgical management in a majority of cases. Its use in the mid- and far periphery provides a holistic clinical picture, which can potentially aid in the understanding of various retinal pathologies.

Moire´ interferometry is a full-field optical method that has high displacement, strain and spatial resolution. The method has been used extensively for deformation analyses in the various fields of mechanics. Special considerations arise when deformation measurements of tiny specimens or tiny regions of larger specimens are sought. The relative displacements within a small field of view will be small (even if the strains are not small), so the number of morie´ fringes might not be enough for an accurate analysis.

An instrument for emission, fluorescence, and scattering diagnostics of a 22 kW gas/air thermal reactor is described. Z-pair parabolic mirrors provide diffraction-limited imaging in field center, with worst-case blur over a 12.8 mm field of view having a radius of 0.044 mm rms. Either full-field filtered or transverse line dispersed viewing can occur simultaneously. Dispersion is achieved using a 2-m spectrograph f-matched to the feed optics. Examples of data show non-axisymmetric flow in a nominally laminar flow system, drop shapes in situ, and Mie scattering from soot.

The use of interferometry for heat transfer studies enables a complete field of view to be quantitatively examined at one time without disturbing the temperature distribution being measured. The Mach-Zehnder interferometer described has an elliptical field, with a 15cm minor axis and is capable of accommodating test chambers 102cm in length using the full field of view. The sensitivity of the instrument for various air pressures and temperature distributions within the test cell has been evaluated. The use of the instrument for identifying isotherms in the neighbourhood of a heated slab supported on skid bars is described. A Moiré technique which eliminates the effects of imperfections in the interferometer plates has also been used.
