  • Title: Inspection of the Human Retina by Optical Coherence Tomography.
    Author: Theelen T, Teussink MM.
    Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2018; 1715():351-358. PubMed ID: 29188527.
    Abstract:
    Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high-resolution, three-dimensional, noninvasive imaging modality to examine the human retina. Since the introduction of spectral domain (SD-) OCT-the currently most used variant of OCT-previously unknown details of in vivo retinal morphology of a broad variety of pathologies have become visible. This chapter explains the basic principles of the OCT technology, deals with possible pitfalls in OCT examination or analysis, and hints at the use of OCT technology in functional imaging.
