Abstract
Intraoperative OCT can markedly enhance visualization in both posterior and anterior eye procedures. In these applications, imaging speed is paramount, as slower systems interfere with surgical workflow. We have previously introduced a circular-ranging (CR) OCT architecture optimized for high-speed intraoperative applications. Here, we demonstrate retinal imaging by CR-OCT for the first time. We achieved a 13.5 MHz A-line rate and performed high-quality wide-field and video-rate normal-field imaging in human subjects. The compressive properties of CR allow each of these imaging modes to operate with reduced data capture, easing acquisition and processing requirements that are critical to achieving continuous and low-latency imaging.
