Abstract: An optical coherence tomography scanning system traverses its respective scan pattern quickly, typically completing an entire two-dimensional frame faster than a conventional raster scanner completes one raster line segment. To traverse the scan pattern quickly, the system takes fewer A-scans per length of scan pattern than a conventional OCT scanner. To compensate for the sparsity of the sample points along the respective scan line segments, and for gaps between respective line segments of the trajectory, the system acquires and combines several partially overlapping frames for each study.

Abstract: Provided herein are computer-implemented methods, computer-implemented systems, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage media for directing an automated dental drill (ADD) for preparation of a target tooth of a patient under the control of a practitioner.
