Fundamentals of Retinal Optical Coherence Tomography

Understanding the underlying theory of medical imaging acquisition helps interpretation of the features manifested in the images and also gives guidance in developing medical image analysis methods. This chapter introduces the development and principles of retinal OCT imaging, and also explains the OCT features of multiple retinal structures.
