Abstract
Full-field swept-source optical coherence tomography (FF-SS-OCT) presents promising capabilities, particularly for ophthalmic imaging. One current limitation is that the extent of the field of view is limited by safety considerations due to the laser focused in front of the eye. Another limitation is that speckle-noise decreases the quality of images. We here used a diffuser that serves the dual purpose of increasing the size of the laser hot spot and reducing speckle-noise. We show that speckle-noise in OCT images can be reduced when moving the diffuser and averaging multiple volumes.
