研制了一种改进的偏振敏感光学相干断层扫描（OCT）系统，并用于测量猪心肌组织的双折射，产生组织的二维双折射图。分析导致系统测量误差的信噪比问题，以确定这种测量准确的制度。偏振敏感OCT系统在避免双折射引起的图像伪影方面优于标准OCT系统。(C)1998年美国光学学会。
An improved polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (OCT) system is developed and used to measure birefringence in porcine myocardium tissue and produce two-dimensional birefringence mapping of the tissue. Signal-to-noise issues that cause systematic measurement errors are analyzed to determine the regime in which such measurements are accurate. The advantage of polarization-sensitive OCT systems over standard OCT systems in avoiding image artifacts caused by birefringence is also demonstrated. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.
