Preliminary results of real-time in-vitro electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) measurements in otolaryngology

Evaluation of Orbital Stress Dissipation in Pediatric and Adult Skulls Using Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry

“…Interferometry was first described more than 3 decades ago, and researchers have since found that it can be useful in the field of clinical medicine. [5][6][7][8][9][10] Clinical studies on human skulls have used conventional HI. Spetzler and Spetzler 11 conducted an early study involving the application of HI to the human skull.…”

“…Interferometry is an investigative tool that has traditionally been used in the field of optical engineering but that has recently evolved into a modality with broader application; eg, it is now used in various biomedical fields. [5][6][7][8][9][10] This noncontact technique determines the 3-dimensional surface relationships of an object for the calculation of displacement. After a stress force or vibratory stimulus is applied, the object's surface pattern is compared with the surface geometry in the resting state.…”
