Autocorrelation noise free Optical Coherence Tomography using the novel concept of resonant OCT (ROCT)

Abstract: Background: Optical Coherence Tomography OCT is a noninvasive imaging technique that takes pictures of cross sections of human body tissues with a great resolution compared to other techniques. Fourier Domain OCT method provides significant improvement of imaging speed and detection sensitivity but suffers from autocorrelation noise arising as interference signals from reflections of sample layers that tends to obscure some of sample structure details.Methods: We present in this paper a new implementation of C… Show more

“…The traditional method of ignoring autocorrelation by increasing the reference arm reflectivity [7] would not suffice in such cases. A variety of autocorrelation removal techniques have been suggested over the years, like averaging spectra over multiple points [8], using resonant acquisition [9], using an off-axis reference beam [10], dispersion encoding [11], various phase shifting methods [12,13,14] and various balanced detection methods 2 [15,16]. Additionally, several computational autocorrelation removal techniques [17,18,19] have also been proposed.…”
