Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for generating a scannable optical delay for a beam of light and an apparatus for Fourier domain optical coherence tomography having said apparatus for generating a scannable optical delay in its reference arm (). The light beam is directed to a pivotably driven mirror () from where it is reflected to a fixed mirror (), and from there back retro reflected along the reference arm (). Lens optics () are provided to ensure accurate optical alignment in several pivot positions of the pivotably driven mirror ().
