Apparatus for parallel Fourier domain Optical Coherence Tomography imaging and imaging method using parallel Fourier domain Optical Coherence Tomography

  • Summary:

    The invention relates to an apparatus for Optical Coherence Tomography imaging with parallel Fourier domain detection and a method of imaging by Optical Coherence Tomography with parallel Fourier domain detection, which can be used for in-vivo imaging, in particular for imaging of the retina and anterior chamber of the eye, but also for imaging of other organs, tissues and cells. The invention enables the reconstruction of the three-dimensional structure of objects without disturbances resulting from phase modulation of scattered light.
