- Swept-source phase-stabilized optical coherence tomography setup for elastographyPublication . Batista, Ana; Correia, Carlos; Barbeiro, Sílvia; Cardoso, João; Domingues, José Paulo; Henriques, Rafael; Loureiro, Custódio; Santos, Mário; Serranho, Pedro; Bernardes, Rui; Morgado, António MiguelWe present an Optical Coherence Elastography (OCE) system, based on a swept-source Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) setup, and evaluate its performance in terms of phase stability and minimum detectable displacement. The ability to record sub-pixel movements in samples under dynamic conditions was also assessed. The OCE system has a time stability of 396.9 ± 46.7 ps. The phase stability, given by the standard deviation of the measured phase difference, was 72.44 mrad, which corresponds to a minimum detectable displacement of 6.11 nm. Tests showed that the OCE system can detect and measure sub-pixel movements in samples under dynamic mechanical excitation.
