Systems and methods are provided for characterizing biomechanical properties of tissue within an eye. A perturbation component introduces a stress to the eye tissue. An imaging component is operative to obtain an image of the eye tissue. A first image of the tissue can be obtained prior to the introduction of the stress and a second image of the tissue can be obtained after the introduction of the stress. An image analysis component compares the first image and the second image as to determine at least one biomechanical property of the tissue.
L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés permettant de caractériser des propriétés biomécaniques de tissus à l'intérieur d'un oeil. Un composant de perturbation introduit une contrainte sur les tissus oculaires. Un composant d'imagerie est conçu pour obtenir une image des tissus oculaires. Une première image des tissus peut être obtenue préalablement à l'introduction de la contrainte et une deuxième image des tissus peut être obtenue après introduction de la contrainte. Un composant d'analyse d'image compare la première et la deuxième image afin de déterminer au moins une propriété biomécanique des tissus.
