  4. Background • Minimally-Invasive to Non-Invasive imaging system • Clinically used • High Resolution alternate to ultrasound imaging • One significant problem is speckle formation

  5. Deformable Mirror

  6. Intensity Loss • Varying Patterns can cause loss of intensity of image and change in percent reflectivity • First, we must characterize default intensity loss by placing a flat mirror at the sample arm and having no deformations on the deformable mirror • Then, we deform mirror and characterize loss: • 3 dB loss  50% loss • 6 dB loss  75% loss • 9 dB loss  87.5% loss

  7. Pattern 1 100% 80% % light reflected Amplitude Pattern 2 100% 80% % light reflected Amplitude Image Assembly

  8. Contrast Ratio

  9. Correlation • If two images have speckle patterns that are the same, averaging them gives us no reduction in that speckle • We have to characterize how similar two images are using the formula:

  28. Conclusion • Quantitative Benchmark: Reduce contrast ratio by 25% - 50% with a 6 dB mean intensity loss • Future Applications: Any Imaging system using a coherent light source can easily integrate the deformable mirror component. • Integration of the mirror will be efficient and cost effective.
