is a non-contact method for imaging the topological and internal microstructure of samples in three dimensions
can be configured as a conventional microscope, as an ophthalmic scanner, or using endoscopes and small diameter catheters for accessing internal biological organs
is an optical method for cross-sectional imaging with a resolution approaching that of histopathology and a depth of penetration of a few mm
OCT is inherently 3-dimensional
with respect to ophthalmic imaging contrasts with the 2-dimensional imaging of fundus photography and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy
