Abstract

A framework presented in this study demonstrates the ability of pressure sensors to aid in acquiring reliable OCT/OCTA images. A handheld OCT probe combined with a disposable attachment with built-in force sensors was developed and its potential for skin imaging was demonstrated. With the real-time pressure monitoring, an operator can easily determine whether the pressure applied to the skin is below the threshold of affecting OCT imaging and uniform so as to obtain repeatable OCTA images.
