OCT

Optical Coherence Tomography

Sketch of working principle

  • • TDOCT: MIT (J.G. Fujimoto et al.) in 1991.
  • • FDOCT has been researching since 1995.

Advantages

  • • Noninvasive in vivo imaging
  • • High spatial resolution
  • • Broad dynamic range

Disadvantages

  • • Coherent noise
  • • Dispersion mismatch

Applications

Optical Coherence Tomography

[E.Regar J.A. et al., Cardio. Radi. Med. v.4, 2003]

  • • Resolution 10 times higher than Ultrasound, MRI
  • • Penetration depth deeper than CSM
  • • Enough niche market against other imaging technologies
