  • Title: Parallel optical coherence tomography system.
    Author: Luo Y, Arauz LJ, Castillo JE, Barton JK, Kostuk RK.
    Journal: Appl Opt; 2007 Dec 01; 46(34):8291-7. PubMed ID: 18059671.
    Abstract:
    We present the design and procedures for implementing a parallel optical coherence tomography (POCT) imaging system that can be adapted to an endoscopic format. The POCT system consists of a single mode fiber (SMF) array with multiple reduced diameter (15 microm) SMFs in the sample arm with 15 microm center spacing between fibers. The size of the array determines the size of the transverse imaging field. Electronic scanning eliminates the need for mechanically scanning in the lateral direction. Experimental image data obtained with this system show the capability for parallel axial scan acquisition with lateral resolution comparable to mechanically scanned optical coherence tomography systems.
