Abstract

The relative position of the eyeballs in the orbit can be a criterion for estimating multiple pathological conditions. Especially, it is useful to diagnose orbital fracture, thyroid eye disease, orbital tumor, and to evaluate the result of drug and surgical treatment. The Hertel and Naugle exophthalmometer, which are the most commonly used measuring instruments for measuring the prominence of the eye, are different from each other. Even if the same examiner repeatedly measures, it is inevitable. Also, even if the same exophthalmometer is different from the manufacturing company, the design of the fixed part of the orbit is different, and a measurement error is caused by the inspectors. In this paper, we propose a method of automatic measurement that can increase the accuracy and repeatability of measurement of exophthalmos using white light scanning interferometer, which is a 3D image measurement technique.

안와 내에서 안구의 상대적 위치는 여러 병적인 상태를 짐작할 수 있는 하나의 기준이 될 수 있다. 특히 안와골절, 갑상선 안질환, 안와 종양 등의 진단과 이에 약물 및 수술적 치료의 결과를 판단하는데 유용하다. 현재 안구 돌출 값을 측정하기 위해 주로 사용되는 대표적 측정 기기인 Hertel과 Naugle 안구돌출계 등은 검사자가 다를 경우, 같은 검사자가 반복적으로 측정하더라도 검사할 때마다 안와의 고정부위가 달라지는 등 측정자에 의한 오차가 필연적이다. 또한 동일한 안구 돌출 계라고 하더라도 제조 회사가 다르다면 안와의 고정부위 디자인이 달라 검사자에의한 측정 오차가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 안구돌출값의 측정을 3차원 영상 측정기술인 백색광 간섭계를 이용하여 검사 정밀도 및 반복 정도를 크게 올릴 수 있는 자동 측정 방법에 대한 연구를 제안하고자 한다.
