Epidural anesthesia needle guidance by forward-view endoscopic optical coherence tomography and deep learning

Abstract Epidural anesthesia requires injection of anesthetic into the epidural space in the spine. Accurate placement of the epidural needle is a major challenge. To address this, we developed a forward-view endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) system for real-time imaging of the tissue in...
