Problems solved by technology

[0009] All of the above methods can increase the imaging depth range of the system, but they all need to add additional devices, such as acousto-optic modulators, multiple reference arms, and change the design of the sample arm, etc., which increase the cost and complexity of the system
In addition, some methods will increase the complexity of data processing

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for increasing an imaging depth range of a sweep optical coherence tomography system. In this method, the system interference signals with equal time intervals are collected at high speed, and the system interference signals with equal time intervals are calibrated as the system interference signals with equal wavenumber intervals to increase the imaging depth range of the system. The higher the rate of high-speed acquisition, the more sampling points in a spectral range, and the greater the imaging depth range of the system. In data processing, the interference signal with constant optical path difference is used to demarcate the system interference signal with equal intervals in high-speed acquisition as the system interference signal with equal intervalsin wavenumber. The realization mode of the invention is simple in structure, easy to operate, and reduces the system cost and complexity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to frequency-domain optical coherence tomography (Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography, FDOCT for short), in particular to a method for increasing the imaging depth range of a frequency-sweeping optical coherence tomography system. Background technique [0002] At present, more and more people are affected by eye diseases, such as hyperopia, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, etc., and the early symptoms of these eye diseases are mainly reflected in changes in eye structure and shape. Therefore, it is of great significance to obtain high-resolution whole-eye information, such as cornea, lens and retinal thickness and eye axial length, for the diagnosis of ophthalmic diseases. [0003] Optical coherence tomography (OCT for short) is a biomedical optical imaging technique that obtains structural information at different depths of a sample by detecting the intensity of backscattered light from...
