Application Progress of Optical Coherence Tomography in Dermatology Imaging
Featuring non-invasiveness and high resolution,optical coherence tomography(OCT)technology has the ability to non-invasively obtain micron-scale high-resolution three-dimensional sectional images of biological tissues.With the continuous development of skin imaging,OCT has been gradually used in the field of dermatology.Because of its great potential in early optical diagnosis and real-time dynamic monitoring of tissue lesions,more and more related clinical applications and research have appeared both at home and abroad.In this review,different types of OCT instruments and their application progress in dermatology were introduced and summarized.
