Virtual multi-directional optical coherence tomography

A virtual multi-directional optical coherence tomography method to visualize directional microstructures of the tissue is demonstrated. The directional measurement is achieved by numerical aperture masks applied after the data acquisition. So multi-directional images are created only a single measurement with no hardware extension. By applying several types of aperture masks, we created not only multi-directional images but also multi-structural-frequency images. These images showed the difference appearance which come from the microstructural directionality of chicken breast muscle sample.
