Multifunctional imaging of human retina and choroid with 1050-nm spectral domain optical coherence tomography at 92-kHz line scan rate

J Biomed Opt. 2011 May;16(5):050503. doi: 10.1117/1.3582159.

Abstract

The light source at ~1-μm wavelength is attractive for enhanced imaging depth in retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT). In this paper, we report on a 1050-nm spectral domain OCT system, combined with optical microangiography that operates at a 92-kHz line scan rate for multifunctional imaging of the human eye, delivering the volumetric imaging of microstructure and microvasculature within retina and choroid.
