Multiple scattering is one of the main degrading influences in optical coherence tomography, but to date its presence in an image can only be indirectly inferred. We present a polarization-sensitive method that shows the potential to detect it more directly, based on the degree to which the ... [Opt. Express 15, 18033-18049 (2007)]

  10. An assessment of the Wigner distribution method in Doppler OCT

    opticsinfobase.org (Oct 24 2007) Explore Article

    Analyzing the experimental data of the velocity distribution in a fluid flow using Doppler Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), we compared the Wigner distribution method to the short-time Fourier transform method, the Hilbert-based phase-resolved method and the autocorrelation method. We conclude that the pseudo Wigner-distribution signal processing method is overall more precise than other often-used methods in Doppler OCT for the analysis of cross-sectional velocity distributions.

    Science/AAAS (Nov 15 1991) Cardiology , Ophthalmology Explore Article

    A technique called optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been developed for noninvasive cross-sectional imaging in biological systems. OCT uses low-coherence interferometry to produce a two-dimensional image of optical scattering from internal tissue microstructures in a way that is analogous to ultrasonic pulse-echo imaging. OCT has longitudinal and lateral spatial resolutions of a few micrometers and can detect reflected signals as small as approximately 10(-10) of the incident optical power. Tomographic ...
