Method and system for optical coherence tomography

摘要

A method and a corresponding system for optical coherence tomography acquires a first image in a region of a first plane of an object by optical coherence tomography equipment, and the first image is displayed on a display device. To facilitate a reliable and time-saving examination with straightforward handling, a second plane of the object is selected on the basis of the first image that is displayed on the display device, wherein the second plane of the object is different from the first plane of the object, and a second image is acquired in the region of the selected second plane of the object by the optical coherence tomography equipment.

主权项

1. A method for optical coherence tomography, the method comprising the steps of:
acquiring a first image in a region of a first plane of an object using optical coherence tomography equipment; displaying the first image on a display device; displaying a selection element in an area of the first image displayed on the display device; receiving a control command entered by a user; modifying a position of the selection element relative to the first image displayed on the display device based on the control command entered by the user and the user selecting a second plane of the object for a second image to be acquired in a region of the second plane on a basis of the first image displayed on the display device, the second plane of the object being different from the first plane of the object; and after the steps of modifying the position of the selection element relative to the first image displayed on the display device based on the control command entered by the user and the user selecting the second plane for the second image to be acquired, acquiring the second image in a region of the selected second plane of the object using the optical coherence tomography equipment.
