Research summary

Kazuhiro Kurokawa develops advanced optical imaging techniques for studying the eye, especially the retina, at very high resolution. Much of the work centers on adaptive optics optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT), a method that combines light-based cross-sectional imaging with distortion-correcting optics to see individual cells and blood vessels in the living human eye. This enables studies of retinal structure, blood flow, and how the eye's neurons and vasculature respond to visual stimulation.
