Optical coherence tomography

Optical Coherence Tomography is a new imaging technique that allows high resolution real-time 3-D imaging up to a depth of 1mm in tissue. We are mainly studying ways of improving this imaging technique either by new experimental implementation or by improving data processing. We also applying this technique in several inter faculty projects with a strong biological focus. For example, we are involved in skin deformation imaging for the diabetic foot as well as in transparent pelagic organism characterisation.
