Abstract
The present invention is directed to systems and methods for generating virtually averaged optical coherence tomography (Oct.) images. An illustrative method can include receiving an image, identifying a first voxel of the image, and selecting a plurality of local voxels of the image. Each of the plurality of local voxels is within a defined region of the first voxel. The values of the plurality of local voxels can indicate an appearance of the local voxels in the image.
