  • Method for filtering reflexes in full-field setups for ophthalmologic imaging by separated illumination and detection apertures
    Patent number: 10743766
    Abstract: A parallel detecting optical coherence tomography (OCT) setup and method, in which the light paths of the illumination of the sample and of the detection of the backscattered light do not use the same apertures. The separation of illumination and detection apertures filters these disturbing reflexes from the backscattered light of the sample and significantly increases image quality.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 29, 2018
    Date of Patent: August 18, 2020
    Assignee: THORLABS GMBH
    Inventors: Dierck Hillmann, Gereon Hüttmann, Gesa Lilith Franke, Helge Sudkamp, Laura Hinkel, Peter Koch, Jörn Wollenzin
