Description
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the optical analog of ultrasound imaging and is emerging as a powerful imaging technique that enables non-invasive, in vivo, high resolution, cross-sectional imaging in biological tissue. This book introduces OCT technology and applications not only from an optical and technological viewpoint, but also from biomedical and clinical perspectives. The chapters are written by leading research groups, in a style comprehensible to a broad audience.
Reviews / Votes
From the reviews: "This is a comprehensive review of the current status of optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology and its applications in the medical field. ... The authors are the leading experts in this field and as such are able to use a unique approach for targeting physicists, scientists, engineers, and researchers in medical specialties, along with practitioners. The book is also suitable for graduate students and residents interested in pursuing an education in medical specialties." (Paul Gueye, Doody's Review Service, June, 2009)More details
