Abstract
Optical coherence tomography is an imaging technique based on coherence interferometry. It is used in many medical fields due to its non-invasive imaging capabilities with micrometer resolution. The aim of the authors was to review the applicability of the optical coherence tomography in otolaryngology. Literature data and their own studies show that optical coherence tomography is a reliable method for identifying and targeted biopsy of inflammated, pre-malignant or cancer tissue in human laryngeal and pharyngeal mucosa. Another emerging field for optical coherence tomography is diagnosis of middle ear diseases, especially stapes ankylosis and cholesteatoma.
