Visual assessment criteria of microstructural ex vivo co-and cross-polarized optical coherence tomography images in gliomas

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a promising method of glial tumors borders diagnostics. Nowadays it is possible to use hand-held and microscope mounted OCT devices during tumor removal. But still there are no clearly visual assessment criteria of OCT images, on the basis of which good differentiation between glioma tissue and white matter can be performed. This paper presents such criteria for crosspolarization OCT (CP OCT), which can detect both the scattering and polarization properties of tissues.
