Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Optical coherence tomography (OCT), since its introduction more than three decades ago, has become a go-to solution in ophthalmology for the diagnosis and evaluation of a variety of eye diseases and defects. In addition to ophthalmology, OCT has also found unique translational value in other clinical fields such as dermatology, cardiology, and even neurology. Thus far, many different implementations of OCT have been demonstrated and clinically validated. Functional extensions of OCT, such as OCT angiography and Doppler OCT, are also gradually accepted in daily clinical practice. In this Special Issue, we would like to select the works that represent the state-of-the-art OCT development. Suitable topics include, but are not limited to:
- AI and OCT;
- Adaptive optics OCT (AO-OCT);
- Polarization sensitive OCT (PS-OCT);
- OCT angiography (OCTA);
- Doppler OCT;
- Multimodal imaging incorporating OCT;
- Clinical application of OCT;
- Preclinical application of OCT.
All types of articles are welcome, be it a perspective, review, or original research article. However, as the Special Issue’s title suggests, the submitted work needs to present the state of the art of OCT. Understandably, OCT has also been applied in non-biophotonics field. We would kindly ask interested authors to only submit articles that are relevant to biophotonics due to the scope of the journal.
