Over the last several years, the technology that enables optical coherence tomography (OCT) has significantly improved. When it first debuted, OCT was a natural fit for ophthalmologists to utilize the near-infrared light-based technology to create high-resolution images of the far reaches of the eye. Since eye tissue is translucent, OCT can provide images revealing retinal pathology and can also be used to diagnose and monitor many retinal diseases like glaucoma and macular edema. Now, a raft of medical applications for OCT has emerged and several exciting new applications are in development.
