OCT and Histology
• Goal of any imaging technology = visualization of structures that are found with histology !
• Fast spectral-domain OCT systems (and in combination with higher resolution of few microns) have demonstrated that OCT in ophthalmology is equally informative as histology but is nonnonnonnon----invasive, real time and ininvasive, real time and ininvasive, real time and ininvasive, real time and in----vivo vivo vivo vivo !
