frequency-domain OCT

Frequency-domain OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) is an imaging technique that captures detailed, cross-sectional images of tissue layers, such as the retina in the eye. It works by measuring how light reflected from different depths changes across various frequencies, allowing rapid data collection. Unlike earlier methods that scan point by point, frequency-domain OCT captures an entire image quickly, providing high-resolution visuals. This enables clinicians to diagnose and monitor eye conditions with precision, offering insights into tissue structure in real-time without discomfort or invasive procedures.
