Abstract:
Regenerative therapies show promise in reversing sight loss caused by degenerative eye diseases. Their precise subretinal delivery can be facilitated by robotic systems alongside with Intra-operative Optical Coherence Tomography (iOCT). However, iOCT’s real-time retinal layer information is compromised by inferior image quality. To address this limitation, we introduce an unpaired video super-resolution methodology for iOCT quality enhancement. A recurrent network is proposed to leverage temporal information from iOCT sequences, and spatial information from pre-operatively acquired OCT images. Additionally, a patchwise contrastive loss enables unpaired super-resolution. Extensive quantitative analysis demonstrates that our approach outperforms existing state-of-the-art iOCT super-resolution models. Furthermore, ablation studies showcase the importance of temporal aggregation and contrastive loss in elevating iOCT quality. A qualitative study involving expert clinicians also confirms this improvement. The comprehensive evaluation demonstrates our method’s potential to enhance the iOCT image quality, thereby facilitating successful guidance for regenerative therapies.
