OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)

Located in room 599J of Minor Hall

This OCT system was designed and made by the Institute of Applied Physics Ras in Russia for use in animal-based research. It can image both anterior and posterior ocular structures including the cornea, retina, and optic nerve. The transverse resolution offered is <10 mm and in depth resolution is also <10 mm. The combination of high resolution and good penetration offered by this instrument reflects the use of a 850 nm (infrared) superluminescent diode as the light source.
