Abstract

A novel model-based identification of white brain matter in OCT A-scans is proposed. Based on nonlinear energy operators used in the classification of neural activity, candidates for white matter structures are extracted from a baseline-corrected signal. Validation of candidates is done by evaluating the correspondence to a simplified intensity model which is parametrized beforehand. Results for identification of white matter in rat brain in vitro show the capability of the proposed algorithm.
