Current medical imaging technologies allow visualization of tissue anatomy in the human
body at resolutions ranging from 100 micrometers to 1 millimeter. These technologies are …

A signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) analysis is presented for optical coherence tomography (OCT)
signals in which time-domain performance is compared with that of the spectral domain. A …

Objectives : The purpose of this document is to make the output of the International Working
Group for Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography (IWG-IVOCT) Standardization and …

Background— High-resolution visualization of atherosclerotic plaque morphology may be
essential for identifying coronary plaques that cause acute coronary events. Optical coherence …

Objectives : The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and the ability of intravascular
optical coherence tomography (OCT) to visualize the components of coronary plaques in …

We demonstrate high-speed, high-sensitivity, high-resolution optical imaging based on
optical frequency-domain interferometry using a rapidly-tuned wavelength-swept laser. We …

The technology of OCT Optical coherence tomography performs micrometre-scale, cross-sectional
imaging of tissue structure in biological systems by directing a focused beam of light …

Background— The current understanding of the pathophysiology of coronary artery disease
is based largely on postmortem studies. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high-…

Background— Macrophage degradation of fibrous cap matrix is an important contributor to
atherosclerotic plaque instability. An imaging technology capable of identifying macrophages …

The airways of the lung are the primary sites of disease in asthma and cystic fibrosis. Here
we study the cellular composition and hierarchy of the mouse tracheal epithelium by single-…
