Abstract: This work describes a new method for the analysis of handwritten documents through a system composed of a pre-selector optical analyser equipped with light sources of different wavelengths coupled with bandpass filters combined with an optical coherence tomography (OCT) instrument. The optical analyser identifies regions with different pen pressures on the paper using specific wavelengths from ultraviolet (UV) to infrared (IR) and bandpass filters. Then the selected regions are analysed with a coherence tomography analyser to measure the depth of grooves and capture three-dimensional images. With this methodology, it is possible to identify similarities, or differences, between the pieces of evidence under investigation, increasing the possibility of correct attribution concerning the authorship of the signature and we also showed that this feature is independent of the paper substrate. In this work, a new strategy will be presented to categorize and quantify pen pressure in order to aid a better response for a forensic examiner. Thereby, from the observed areas that display higher pressures (more significant grooves), it is possible to determine the authorship of the signature.

Abstract: PURPOSE. To evaluate whether retinal capillary nonperfusion is found predominantly adjacent
to arteries or veins in eyes with diabetic retinopathy (DR).
METHODS. Sixty-three eyes from 44 patients with proliferative DR (PDR) or non-PDR (NPDR)
were included. Images (12 3 12-mm) foveal-centered optical coherence tomography (OCT)
angiography (OCTA) images were taken using the Zeiss Plex Elite 9000. In 37 eyes, widefield
montages with five fixation points were also obtained. A semiautomatic algorithm that detects
nonperfusion in full-retina OCT slabs was developed, and the percentages of capillary
nonperfusion within the total image area were calculated. Retinal arteries and veins were
manually traced. Based on the shortest distance, nonperfusion pixels were labeled as either
arterial-side or venous-side. Arterial-adjacent and venous-adjacent nonperfusion and the A/V
ratio (arterial-adjacent nonperfusion divided by venous-adjacent nonperfusion) were
quantified.
RESULTS. Twenty-two eyes with moderate NPDR, 16 eyes with severe NPDR, and 25 eyes with
PDR were scanned. Total nonperfusion area in PDR (median: 8.93%) was greater than in
moderate NPDR (3.49%, P < 0.01). Arterial-adjacent nonperfusion was greater than venousadjacent
nonperfusion for all stages of DR (P < 0.001). The median A/V ratios were 1.93 in
moderate NPDR, 1.84 in severe NPDR, and 1.78 in PDR. The A/V ratio was negatively
correlated with the total nonperfusion area (r ¼ 0.600, P < 0.0001). The results from the
widefield montages showed similar patterns.
CONCLUSIONS. OCTA images with arteries and veins traced allowed us to estimate the
nonperfusion distribution. In DR, smaller nonperfusion tends to be arterial-adjacent, while
larger nonperfusion tends toward veins.

Abstract: Purpose: This study aimed to characterize and
analyze the number of voids and the percentage
of void volume within and between the layers of class II composite restorations made
using the bulk fill technique or the incremental
technique by optical coherence tomography
(OCT).
Methods and Materials: Class II cavities (43432
mm) were prepared in 48 human third molars
(n=24 restorations per group, two class II
cavities per tooth). Teeth were divided into
four groups and restored as follows: group 1
(FOB), bulk filled in a single increment using
Filtek One Bulk Fill (3M Oral Care); group 2
(FXT), incrementally filled using four oblique
layers of Filtek Z350 XT (3M Oral Care); group
3 (FBF+FXT), bulk filled in a single increment
using Filtek Bulk Fill Flowable Restorative
(3M Oral Care) covered with two oblique layers
of Filtek Z350 XT (3M Oral Care), and group 4
(FF+FXT), incrementally filled using Filtek
Z350 XT Flow (3M Oral Care) covered with
two oblique layers of Filtek Z350 XT (3M Oral
Care). After the restorative procedure, specimens
were immersed into distilled water and
stored in a hot-air oven at 378C. Forty-eight
hours later, thermal cycling was conducted
(5000 cycles, 58C to 558C). Afterward, OCT was
used to detect the existence of voids and to calculate the number of voids and percentage
of voids volume within each restoration. Data
were submitted to chi-square and Kruskal-
Wallis tests (a=0.05). Comparisons were made
using the Dunn method.
Results: Voids were detected in all groups,
ranging from 0.000002 (FBF+FXT and FF+FXT)
to 0.32 mm3 (FBF+FXT). FF + FXT presented
voids in all of the restorations and had a
significantly higher number of voids per restoration
when compared to the other groups
(p,0.05), but restorations with the presence of
voids were significantly higher only when
compared to FXT (p,0.05). FBF + FXT presented
a significantly higher percentage of voids
volume than that of FXT (p,0.05). When comparing
restorations made using high-viscosity
resin-based composites (FOB and FXT), no
significant differences regarding number of
voids or percentage of voids volume were
detected (p 0.05).
Conclusions: The use of flowable resin-based
composites can result in an increased number
of voids and percentage of voids volume in
restorations, and this appears to be more
related to voids present inside the syringe of
the material than to the use of incremental or
bulk fill restorative techniques.

Optical coherence tomography and polarized light microscopy for the evaluation of artificial caries: a preliminary study. General Dentistry, v. 67, n. 1,
p. e1-e6, 2019. Abstract: This study was designed to investigate whether there is
a correlation between the findings of optical coherence
tomography (OCT) and polarized light microscopy (PLM)
when these techniques are used to evaluate standard
enamel white-spot lesions developed by distinct cariogenic
challenges. Bovine enamel fragments (N = 168)
were randomly allocated into 6 experimental groups
according to the microbiologic model (Streptococcus
mutans UA159, Streptococcus sobrinus ATCC 33478,
or mixed S mutans and S sobrinus) and carbohydrate
sources (1% sucrose or combined 1% sucrose and 1%
starch). Specimens were examined by OCT and PLM
every day within a period of 7 days. Five measurements
of demineralization depth were recorded for each specimen,
and means were calculated. Data were analyzed
with analysis of variance and Tukey tests (α = 0.05), and
a correlation test was performed. All cariogenic challenges
created sub-superficial lesions. In both the OCT
and PLM analyses, the demineralization depth reached
its peak between days 6 and 7 of the cariogenic challenge,
except for the group challenged with S sobrinus
supplemented with combined sucrose and starch; for
that group, demineralization peaked on day 5 in the OCT
analysis. There was a significant correlation between
OCT and PLM (P = 0.00; r = 0.842). This preliminary study
suggests that OCT is a reliable, nondestructive method
to measure the demineralization depth of enamel whitespot
lesions, which can be useful for the laboratory and
has potential for clinical studies. Using the 1% sucrose
and S mutans model for 6 days is a simple and effective
method to induce enamel caries–like lesions without
compromising the depth and morphologic features of
the obtained lesions.

Abstract: A simple, reliable, linearly polarized laser source with very high beam quality is demonstrated using standard diode-side-pumped Nd:YAG modules. The laser produced 30 W of output power with beam quality factor 𝑀2<1.15 over the entire range of input powers and beam quality of 1.02 at the laser operation point. This is, to our knowledge, the highest beam quality for a dynamically stable high-power laser that uses an optically isotropic crystal. The laser was used as a pump source for an optical parametric oscillator based on a periodically poled lithium niobate, producing wavelength in the 1.5–3.8 μm range.

Abstract: The recent clinical adoption of optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) has enabled
non-invasive, volumetric visualization of ocular vasculature at micron-scale resolutions. Initially
limited to 3 mm × 3 mm and 6 mm × 6 mm fields-of-view (FOV), commercial OCTA systems now offer
12 mm × 12 mm, or larger, imaging fields. While larger FOVs promise a more complete visualization of
retinal disease, they also introduce new challenges to the accurate and reliable interpretation of OCTA
data. In particular, because of vignetting, wide-field imaging increases occurrence of low-OCT-signal
artifacts, which leads to thresholding and/or segmentation artifacts, complicating OCTA analysis.
This study presents theoretical and case-based descriptions of the causes and effects of low-OCTsignal
artifacts. Through these descriptions, we demonstrate that OCTA data interpretation can be
ambiguous if performed without consulting corresponding OCT data. Furthermore, using wide-field
non-perfusion analysis in diabetic retinopathy as a model widefield OCTA usage-case, we show how
qualitative and quantitative analysis can be confounded by low-OCT-signal artifacts. Based on these
results, we suggest methods and best-practices for preventing and managing low-OCT-signal artifacts,
thereby reducing errors in OCTA quantitative analysis of non-perfusion and improving reproducibility.
These methods promise to be especially important for longitudinal studies detecting progression and
response to therapy.

Abstract: In this work a method to evaluate the distribution of vibration amplitudes of objects was demonstrated, combining for the first time oblique structured light projection, stroboscopic illumination and fringe evaluation. The light pattern was formed by straight and parallel fringes produced by a slightly misaligned Twyman–Green interferometer illuminated by a 40-mW, 650-nm diode laser. Stroboscopic illumination was achieved by driving the laser with a PWM signal with the same frequency than that of the vibrating object. By evaluating the fringes with phase stepping and phase unwrapping procedures, the amplitude mapping of a formica bar and circular rubber membranes was performed. By averaging the fringe position over the light pulse duration a correction ratio between the actual phase and the measured phase was obtained as a function of the pulse duty cycle, and the dependence of the fringe visibility on the duty cycle was studied. The experiments showed that relatively large amplitudes in a range from tens of millimeters up to few millimeters can be measured.

Abstract: Nd3+-doped GeO2-PbO glass with silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) are produced with double line waveguides through fs laser processing for photonic applications. A Ti:sapphire fs laser at 800 nm was used to write the waveguides directly into the glass 0.7 mm beneath the surface. This platform is based on pairs of parallel lines with spacing of 10 µm, each pair being formed by two identical written lines but in two different configurations of 4 or 8 separately processed lines, which are coincident. The results of optical microscopy, absorbance measurements, refractive index change, beam quality factor (at 632 and 1064 nm), photoluminescence, propagation losses, and relative gain at 1064 nm are presented. The structural changes in the glass due to the presence of Ag NPs were investigated by Raman spectroscopy. At 632 and 1064 nm, x,y-symmetrical guiding was observed, and for both kinds of overlapping pulses, a refractive index alteration of 10−3 was found in both directions. Photoluminescence growth of ~47% at 1064 nm was observed due to the plasmonic effect of Ag NPs. In dual waveguides containing Ag NPs, the relative gain obtained increased by 40% and 30% for four and eight overlapping lines, respectively, at 600 mW of 808 nm pump power, when compared to waveguides without those metallic NPs. We highlight the resultant positive internal gains of 5.11 and 7.12 dB/cm that showed a growth of ~40% and ~30%, respectively, with respect to the samples without Ag NPs. The increase in photoluminescence and relative gain were related to the local field growth produced by Ag NPs. The present results show that the addition of Ag NPs impacts positively on the optical performance at 1064 nm of double line waveguides processed by fs laser writing in Nd3+-doped GeO2-PbO glass, opening news perspectives for photonics.
