Abstract
Evaluating biomechanical properties of trabecular meshwork (TM) is of great significance for understanding the mechanism of aqueous humor circulation and its relationship to some eye diseases such as glaucoma; however, there is almost no relevant study due to the lack of clinical measurement tool. In this paper, an acoustic radiation force optical coherence elastography (ARF-OCE) system is developed with the advantages of noninvasive detection, high resolution, high sensitivity, and high-speed imaging, by which elastic modulus of the porcine and human TMs is accurately quantified. As the first OCE imaging of TM, our study demonstrates that ARF-OCE may be an effective approach to advance the research of diseases related to aqueous humor circulation.
