High-Quality OCT Volume Imaging Core Service
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a technique that can image semi-transparent materials in-depth up to a few mm depending on the tissue type. It is a safe, non-contact measurement that is often used in ophthalmology, but increasing endoscopic variants are emerging (cardiovascular, GI tract). It is the higher-resolution optical analog to ultrasound and can be used in many of the same settings.
