Optical Coherence Tomography: Advancing Precision in Medical Imaging

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) has revolutionized the field of medical diagnostics by providing high-resolution, cross-sectional imaging of biological tissues. This non-invasive imaging technique is widely used in ophthalmology, cardiology, dermatology, and oncology, allowing clinicians to visualize microscopic structures in real time. With growing demand for early disease detection and personalized healthcare, OCT has become an essential tool in modern medicine.

Understanding Optical Coherence Tomography

Optical Coherence Tomography works on the principle of low-coherence interferometry, where light waves are reflected off tissue layers to produce detailed images. Unlike traditional imaging methods such as MRI or ultrasound, OCT uses near-infrared light instead of sound or radiation. This enables it to capture images with micrometer-level precision, ideal for examining delicate tissue structures like the retina, coronary arteries, or skin layers.

Since its development in the early 1990s, OCT has evolved into a mature technology integrated…
