Swept-source optical coherence tomography

Abstract

In the two decades since optical coherence tomography (OCT) was first described (Huang et al. 1991), this technology has played essential roles in ophthalmology as well as other branches of medicine. The technology has been adapted to produce noninvasive, high-resolution images of both the anterior segment (cornea and structures at the angles) and posterior pole (retina, choroid, sclera, and optic disc).
