Zusammenfassung:A low-coherence interferometry imaging system for imaging translucent samples, wherein the system includes an optical coherence microscopy (OCM) mode and an optical coherence tomography (OCT) mode, and wherein the system can selectively employ either mode without requiring re-positioning of a sample under test. The system provides for the selective disposition of the OCM mode or the OCT mode in an optical path intermediate a scanning system and an imaging objective.
