Scholarly works icon

Recovering the appearance of the capillary blood column from under-sampled flow data.

Phillip Bedggood, Andrew Metha

Journal article  |  2020  |  Optics Letters

The regular spacing of cells in capillary flow results in spurious cell trajectories if the sampling rate is too low. This makes i..

Are you sure? The relationship between response certainty and performance in visual detection using a perimetry-style task

Phillip Bedggood, Aiza Ahmad, Adam Chen, Rachael Lim, Sadiqa Maqsudi, Andrew Metha

Journal article  |  2020  |  Journal of Vision

Conventional psychophysical methods ignore the degree of confidence associated with each response. We compared the psychometric fu..

Adaptive optics imaging of the retinal microvasculature

Phillip Bedggood, Andrew Metha

Journal article  |  2019  |  Clinical and Experimental Optometry

The eye has long been recognised as the window to pathological processes occurring in the brain and other organs. By imaging the v..
