Title: Full range spectral domain optical coherence tomography using a fiber-optic probe as a self-phase shifter. Author: Min EJ, Shin JG, Lee JH, Yasuno Y, Lee BH. Journal: Opt Lett; 2012 Aug 01; 37(15):3105-7. PubMed ID: 22859100. Abstract: We present a full range handheld probe type spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) method. Here, the sample arm is composed of a tilted fiber-optic cantilever scanner; thus, the phase shift concurrently occurs while sample scanning. With the phase shift, we could achieve a full range complex-conjugate-free OCT image with no additional phase shifters in the reference arm. To realize this technique, a magnetically actuated probe was adopted. Full range SD-OCT images of a pearl, human fingernail, and human tooth were subsequently obtained using this suggested probe. The scanning range and acquisition speed were 3 mm and 20 frames/s, respectively.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
