Spectrally encoded confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy
Abstract
We present in vivo human fundus imaging using a fiber-based confocal scanning laser
ophthalmoscope (SLO). Spectrally encoded confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SECSLO)
utilizes a spectral encoding technique in one dimension, combined with single-axis
lateral scanning, to create video-rate reflectivity maps of the fundus. This implementation
of the SLO allows for high-contrast high-resolution in vivo human retinal imaging
through a single-mode optical fiber. We experimentally quantify the full confocality
of SECSLO in both the spectrally encoded and laterally scanned dimensions, and demonstrate
50 Hz frame rate fundus imaging. © 2010 Optical Society of America.
