Abstract :
Summary form only given. We present a relatively fast optical coherence tomography (OCT) system equipped with a special software package to render 3D images of the tissue. The OCT system is capable of producing transversal as well as longitudinal images from the retina in vivo. A powerful superluminiscent diode at 860 nm is used, with the system delivering 140 /spl mu/W power to the eye.
