Method: Hybrid OCT & Spectral Imaging
Alternative labels
Hy-SI OCT
Description
The Hybrid instrument is equipped with a filtered illumination-based VIS-NIR reflectance spectral imaging system which is co-aligned with OCT data collection. Reflectance spectral imaging is an efficient way of collecting millions of reflectance spectra over an area in one image cube (2D spatial and wavelength in the 3rd dimension). In the visible-NIR spectral region, the spectral features primarily concern electronic transitions in molecules, enabling the identification of pigments. The implementation of spectral imaging here allows the collection of spectral imaging cubes at spatial resolutions in the order of a few microns.
