Abstract
The present specification relates to Master-Slave (MS) interferometry for sensing the axial position of an object subject to optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging, and to MS-OCT applied to curved and axially moving objects. The methods and apparatuses allow producing OCT signals from selected depths within the object irrespective of its axial position in respect to the imaging system. Images are obtained for curved objects that are flattened along a layer of interest in the object, images that are used to provide OCT angiography images less disturbed by axial movement or lateral scanning.
