Abstract
This study examined the sensitivity of broadband spectroscopy algorithms for retinal tissue oximetry to spectral acquisition parameters. Monte Carlo simulations were conducted on a 4-layer retinal model to assess the impact of various parameters. The optimal spectral range for accurate measurements was determined to be 530 nm to 585 nm. Decreased spectral resolution below 4 nm significantly reduced accuracy. Using an acquisition area larger than the blood vessel resulted in an underestimation of oxygen saturation, especially for high values. A threshold was observed where increased light intensity had no significant impact on measurement variability. The study highlights the importance of informed parameter selection for accurately assessing retinal microcapillary oxygenation and studying local hemodynamics.
