    Abstract The combination of polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) and birefringence microscopy (BRM) enables multiscale assessment of myelinated axons in postmortem brain tissue, and these tools are promising for the study of brain connectivity and organization. We demonstrate label-free imaging of myelin structure across the mesoscopic and microscopic spatial scales by performing serial-sectioning PS-OCT of a block of human brain tissue and periodically sampling thin sections for high-resolution imaging with BRM. In co-registered birefringence parameter maps, we observe good correspondence and demonstrate that BRM enables detailed validation of myelin (hence, axonal) organization, thus complementing the volumetric information content of PS-OCT.

    Abstract A major challenge in neuroscience is to visualize the structure of the human brain at different scales. Traditional histology reveals micro- and meso-scale brain features, but suffers from staining variability, tissue damage and distortion that impedes accurate 3D reconstructions. Here, we present a new 3D imaging framework that combines serial sectioning optical coherence tomography (S-OCT) with a deep-learning digital staining (DS) model. We develop a novel semi-supervised learning technique to facilitate DS model training on weakly paired images. The DS model performs translation from S-OCT to Gallyas silver staining. We demonstrate DS on various human cerebral cortex samples with consistent staining quality. Additionally, we show that DS enhances contrast across cortical layer boundaries. Furthermore, we showcase geometry-preserving 3D DS on cubic-centimeter tissue blocks and visualization of meso-scale vessel networks in the white matter. We believe that our technique offers the potential for high-throughput, multiscale imaging of brain tissues and may facilitate studies of brain structures.

    Abstract The study of neurodegenerative processes in the human brain requires a comprehensive understanding of cytoarchitectonic, myeloarchitectonic, and vascular structures. Recent computational advances have enabled volumetric reconstruction of the human brain using thousands of stained slices, however, tissue distortions and loss resulting from standard histological processing have hindered deformation-free reconstruction of the human brain. The development of a multi-scale and volumetric human brain imaging technique that can measure intact brain structure would be a major technical advance. Here, we describe the development of integrated serial sectioning Polarization Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography (PSOCT) and Two Photon Microscopy (2PM) to provide label-free multi-contrast imaging, including scattering, birefringence and autofluorescence of human brain tissue. We demonstrate that high-throughput reconstruction of 4×4×2cm

    Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an emerging 3D imaging technique that allows quantification of intrinsic optical properties such as scattering coefficient and back-scattering coefficient, and has proved useful in distinguishing delicate microstructures in the human brain. The origins of scattering in brain tissues are contributed by the myelin content, neuron size and density primarily; however, no quantitative relationships between them have been reported, which hampers the use of OCT in fundamental studies of architectonic areas in the human brain and the pathological evaluations of diseases. Here, we built a generalized linear model based on Mie scattering theory that quantitatively links tissue scattering to myelin content and neuron density in the human brain. We report a strong linear relationship between scattering coefficient and the myelin content that is retained across different regions of the brain. Neuronal cell body turns out to be a secondary contribution to the overall scattering. The optical property of OCT provides a label-free solution for quantifying volumetric myelin content and neuron cells in the human brain.

    Abstract The importance of polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) has been increasingly recognized in human brain imaging. Despite the recent progress of PS-OCT in revealing white matter architecture and orientation, quantification of fine-scale fiber tracts in the human brain cortex has been a challenging problem, due to a low birefringence in the gray matter. In this study, we investigated the effect of refractive index matching by 2,2'-thiodiethanol (TDE) immersion on the improvement of PS-OCT measurements in

    Abstract Objective: Serial sectioning optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables accurate volumetric reconstruction of several cubic centimeters of human brain samples. We aimed to identify anatomical features of the ex vivo human brain, such as intraparenchymal blood vessels and axonal fiber bundles, from the OCT data in 3D, using intrinsic optical contrast.
    Methods: We developed an automatic processing pipeline to enable characterization of the intraparenchymal microvascular network in human brain samples.
    Results: We demonstrated the automatic extraction of the vessels down to a 20 μm in diameter using a filtering strategy followed by a graphing representation and characterization of the geometrical properties of microvascular network in 3D. We also showed the ability to extend this processing strategy to extract axonal fiber bundles from the volumetric OCT image.
    Conclusion: This method provides a viable tool for quantitative characterization of volumetric microvascular network as well as the axonal bundle properties in normal and pathological tissues of the ex vivo human brain.

    Abstract Brain cells are arranged in laminar, nuclear, or columnar structures, spanning a range of scales. Here, we construct a reliable cell census in the frontal lobe of human cerebral cortex at micrometer resolution in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-referenced system using innovative imaging and analysis methodologies. MRI establishes a macroscopic reference coordinate system of laminar and cytoarchitectural boundaries. Cell counting is obtained with a digital stereological approach on the 3D reconstruction at cellular resolution from a custom-made inverted confocal light-sheet fluorescence microscope (LSFM). Mesoscale optical coherence tomography enables the registration of the distorted histological cell typing obtained with LSFM to the MRI-based atlas coordinate system. The outcome is an integrated high-resolution cellular census of Broca's area in a human postmortem specimen, within a whole-brain reference space atlas.
