Spectroscopic optical coherence tomography (SOCT) is an optical imaging and sensing technique, which provides localized spectroscopic information of a sample based on the principles of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and low coherence interferometry. The general principles behind SOCT arise from the large optical bandwidths involved in OCT, where information on the spectral content of backscattered light can be obtained by detection and processing of the interferometric OCT signal. SOCT signal can be used to quantify depth-resolved spectra to retrieve the concentration of tissue chromophores (e.g., hemoglobin and bilirubin), characterize tissue light scattering, and/or used as a functional contrast enhancement for conventional OCT imaging.
