In vivo photothermal optical coherence tomography of endogenous and exogenous contrast agents in the eye

Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become a standard-of-care in retinal imaging. OCT allows non-invasive imaging of the tissue structure but lacks specificity to contrast agents that could be used for in vivo molecular imaging. Photothermal OCT (PT-OCT) is a functional OCT-based techniq...
