Abstract

Imaging methods are an expanding branch of technology, which involves data acquisition and analysis of images for research and diagnostics. This paper has been devoted to describe the optical design for one-dimensional, portable optical coherence tomography (OCT) system. The Mach-Zehnder interferometer has been designed in the presented study. Description of the construction and applied hardware solutions have been written. Moreover, a dedicated software tools for signal processing and data acquisition have been developed Full Text: PDF ReferencesStrąkowski, M.
