Dual-Source Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Reconstructed on Integrated Spectrum

Dual-Source Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Reconstructed on Integrated Spectrum

Dual-source swept-source optical coherence tomography (DS-SSOCT) has two individual sources with different central wavelengths, linewidth, and bandwidths. Because of the difference between the two sources, the individually reconstructed tomograms from each source have different aspect ratio, which m...
