Optical Tissue Clearing to Enhance Imaging Performance for OCT
Fig. 48.1 Low-coherence Michelson interferometer A low coherent light source, e.g., an SLD, emits a light beam with short coherence length towards the Michelson interferometer, where it is first split…
Linear OCT Systems
Fig. 12.1 The four fundamental implementations of OCT FD- and SS-OCT offer superior sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) over time-domain and linear OCT. But they also have some disadvantages. FD-OCT…
Optical Coherence Microscopy
