Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a recently developed non-invasive imaging modality, which is often used in ophthalmology. Because of the sequential scanning in form of A-scans, OCT suffers from the inevitable eye movement. This often leads to mis-alignment especially among consecutive B-scans, which affects the analysis and processing of the data such as the registration of the OCT en face image to color fundus image. In this paper, we propose a novel method to correct the mis-alignment among consecutive B-scans to improve the accuracy in multi-modality retinal image registration. In the method, we propose to compute decorrelation from overlapping B-scans and to detect the eye movement. Then, the B-scans with eye movement will be re-aligned to its precedent scans while the rest of B-scans without eye movement are untouched. Our experiments results show that the proposed method improves the accuracy and success rate in the registration to color fundus images.
