Abstract
Described herein are an apparatus, system, and method for detecting light. An apparatus can include means for modulating an input beam of light wherein the input beam of light is obtained from an optical coherence tomography arrangement; means for dispersing the modulated beam of light; and means for detecting the dispersed beam of light and converting the detected beam of light into an electrical output signal. An apparatus can include a modulator configured to spatially modulate light; a dispersing element configured to disperse modulated light, and a detector configured to detect dispersed light and convert the detected light into electrical output signals. A method can include spatially modulating a beam of light, dispersing the modulated beam of light, detecting the dispersed beam of light, converting the detecting beam of light into electrical output signals, and providing a three-dimensional image of at least a part of an object.
