Abstract
Dynamic OCT (dOCT) method uses time-depended OCT signal fluctuations arising from cellular motion in biological tissues to generate additional contrast in OCT images. So far dOCT studies have been conducted with Point-scanning and Full-field dOCT platforms, each of them offering advantages and limitations such as FOV, volumetric scan and phase stability. Here we present the first line-field dOCT platform (LF-dOCT), which allows low jitter B-scan dOCT signal collections. A Powell lens is utilized for uniform line-direction system sensitivity. Various biological tissues have been imaged with the LF-dOCT platform to validate its ability to detect cellular and intracellular dynamics.
