In vivo optical interferometric imaging of human skin utilizing monochromatic light source

Abstract

We have demonstrated tomographic imaging of in vivo human skin with an optical interferometric imaging technique using a monochromatic light source. The axial resolution of this method is determined by the center wavelength and the NA of the objective and is irrelevant to the bandwidth of the light source in contrast to optical coherence tomography. Our imaging system is constructed with low-priced and small-sized compact disk optical pickup components, a laser diode, a high NA objective, and a voice coil actuator. In spite of its low cost and small size, our imaging system can visualize the structure of human skin as clearly as a commercial reflectance confocal microscope.
