Figure 2. SDOCT and SSOCT configurations.

Figure 2

In both setups the reference arm is static. With SDOCT a spectrometer disperses light across a line scan camera. Modulations in the spectrum can be seen across the pixels of the camera. In SSOCT a swept source laser is employed and a photodetector captures modulations on the spectrum over time.
