Optically computed phase imaging systems and methods are provided. An example system includes an interferometer configured to output 3D spatial-spectral data of a sample including an interferometric signal and an optical computation assembly having a spatial light modulator configured to modulate the 3D spatial-spectral data with a modulation pattern. The modulation pattern modulates the interferometric signal along a spectral dimension to select a depth to obtain a sample signal at the selected depth and modulates the interferometric signal along a first spatial dimension to create a waveform to facilitate phase extraction. The system further includes a detector configured to detect 2D spatial data of the sample. The system further includes a processor coupled to a memory, the processor configured to process the 2D spatial data to extract phase information of the sample.
