Fig. 1. MRW algorithm segmentation procedure of intensity image. First stage shows the process of upper boundary segmentation. Second stage shows the process of bottom boundary segmentation. Then, they are combined to create an intact boundary mask (scale bar: 500 μm).

Fig. 2. Selection of seed points in the segmentation stages for OCT intensity image. (a) Two kinds of seeds are selected for the upper boundary segmentation in the first stage, marked by green and blue lines, respectively. (b) Two kinds of seeds are selected for the bottom boundary segmentation in the second stage, marked by green and blue lines, respectively (scale bar: 500 μm).

Fig. 3. Segmentation procedure of the phase image. We combined phase image with a boundary mask to remove the background, and then made use of the threshold condition to get the blood flow region (scale bar: 500 μm).

Fig. 4. Probability map and corresponding segmentation results using different regularization. (a) Probability map using the regularization ∇x. (b) Segmentation result of (a). (c) Probability map using the regularization D2x. (d) Segmentation result of (c) (scale bar: 500 μm).

Fig. 5. Segmentation results of different OCT frames. (a-1)–(d-1) OCT intensity images of frames 1, 65, 131, 192, and segmentation results, respectively. (a-2)–(d-2) OCT phase images of frames 1, 65, 131, 192, and segmentation results, respectively (scale bar: 500 μm).
