Full field optical coherence tomography (FF-OCT) enables high-resolution in-depth imaging within turbid media. In this work, we present a simple approach which combines FF-OCT with off-axis interferometry for reconstruction of en-face images. With low spatial and temporal coherence illumination, this method is able to extract an FF-OCT image from only one interference acquisition. This method is described, and the proof-of-concept is demonstrated through the observation of scattering samples such as organic and ex vivo biomedical samples.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
