Abstract

This paper reviews the state of the art Optical Tomography (OT) and the contribution of Optical Coherent Tomography (OCT), with a view of the results of the studies that have been carried out by previous researchers. Discussion on the principles and applications of interferometric imaging technique that provides cross-sectional view of the bottom surface of the tissue micro biology and industrial used. Following a discussion of the basic theory of OCT, the time domain and domain Fourier and opinions about the issues involved in the design of the main components of the OCT either the medical field or industry. Surveys are also conducted in the diversity of techniques used to upgrade existing OCT systems. Thus in principle by introducing a newly developed imaging mode to obtain additional diagnostic information.
