Abstract

An optical coherence tomography (OCT) system based on the ghost imaging (GI) technique is developed for correctly imaging in scattering media. Usually, the scattering in the media leads to a decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed image. This problem can be solved by using ghost imaging-OCT(GI-OCT), but the number of patterns required for GI reconstruction depends on the concentration of the scattering media. Therefore, studying the relationship between the intensity distribution in reconstructed images and the optical properties of scattering media is essential. In this study, image reconstruction is carried out in scattering media with a concentration of 0.0% to 1.4%, diluted from processed milk. Using the structural similarity index method (SSIM) to analyze the reconstruction condition, it is found that the target image can be reconstructed correctly when the SSIM value is more than 0.7. By analyzing the intensity distribution of the reconstructed image, the results show that the extinction coefficient of the scattering media is negatively correlated with the contrast of the reconstructed image and positively correlated with the scattering intensity. Their correlation coefficients are −0.94 and 0.99, respectively.
