Abstract
Ophthalmic optical coherence tomography (OCT) has achieved remarkable clinical success but remains sequestered in ophthalmology specialty offices. Recently introduced robotic OCT systems seek to expand patient access but fall short of their full potential due to significant imaging workspace and motion planning restrictions. Here, we present a next-generation robotic OCT system capable of imaging in any configuration that is mechanically reachable. This system overcomes prior restrictions by eliminating fixed-base tracking components, extending robot reach, and planning alignment in six degrees of freedom. With this robotic system, we show repeatable subject imaging independent of posture under widely varying head orientations.
