Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an imaging technology that has developed rapidly over the past decade. It utilizes the basic principle of a weakly coherent light interferometer to detect back-reflected or multiply scattered signals from different depth layers of biological tissues in response to incident weakly coherent light. Through scanning, it can produce two-dimensional or three-dimensional structural images of biological tissues.
