Attenuation coefficient as a quantitative parameter for analyzing cataracts with optical coherence tomography

Crystalline lenses of mice were imaged in vivo with a custom-made swept-source optical coherence tomography system. The use of the attenuation coefficient as a quantitative parameter for investigating the lens opacities magnitude is proposed, demonstrating a significant difference between the values...
