Abstract
We report a method to image facial sebaceous glands (SGs) using smartphone-enabled wide-field autofluorescence photography (AFP) and handheld swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Smartphone-enabled AFP provides a 2D wide-field fluorescence image that is used both as a functional mapping of the sebum and a positioning guidance for OCT imaging of the SG. Following the guidance, handheld SS-OCT conducts the volume scan to investigate depth-resolved conditions of the SG in the selected regions of interest. We show the results from smartphone-enabled AFP and handheld SS-OCT to demonstrate the ability of our method to image facial SGs, potentially useful for the assessment of skin conditions in dermatology and cosmetology.
