    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical coherence tomography analysis method, comprising: Providing a Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography system (SS-OCT), the SS-OCT system including: a light source, tunable over a spectral band, that generates a coherent light signal; an optical interferometer for dividing the coherent light signal into a reference arm leading to a reference reflector and a sample arm leading to a sample; an optical element to selectively direct a sample light signal exiting the sample arm to a specific portion of the sample, so that for each selection in the optical element a different specific portion of the sample is illuminated; an optical detector for detecting an interference signal generated by a combination of reference and sample returning signals from the reference arm and from the sample arm, reflected by the reference reflector and the sample, respectively; Wherein, for the same selection operated at the optical element level illuminating a specific portion of the
