    • Speckle, a factor reducing image quality in optical coherence tomography (“OCT”), can limit the ability to identify cellular structures that are important for the diagnosis of a variety of diseases. Exemplary embodiments of the present invention can facilitate an implementation of an angular compounding, angular compounding by path length encoding (“ACPE”) for reducing speckle in OCT images. By averaging images obtained at different incident angles, with each image encoded by path length, ACPE maintains high-speed image acquisition and implements minimal modifications to OCT probe optics. ACPE images obtained from tissue phantoms and human skin in vivo demonstrate a qualitative improvement over traditional OCT and an increased signal-to-noise ratio (“SNR”). Accordingly, exemplary embodiments of an apparatus probe catheter and method can be provided for irradiating a structure. In particular, an interferometer may forward forwarding an electromagnetic radiation. In addition, a sample arm may receive the electromagnetic radiation, and can include an arrangement which facilitates a production of at least two radiations from the electromagnetic radiation so as to irradiate the structure. Such exemplary arrangement can be configured to delay a first radiation of the at least two radiations with respect to a second radiation of the at least two radiations.
    • 斑点,减少光学相干断层扫描(“OCT”)中的图像质量的因素可能会限制识别对各种疾病的诊断重要的细胞结构的能力。 本发明的示例性实施例可以有助于通过路径长度编码(“ACPE”)实现角复合角度复合,以减少OCT图像中的斑点。 通过平均以不同入射角度获取的图像,每个图像由路径长度编码,ACPE保持高速图像采集,并对OCT探针光学元件进行最小修改。 从体内组织模型和人体皮肤获得的ACPE图像显示出比传统OCT和增加的信噪比(“SNR”)的定性改善。 因此,可以提供用于照射结构的装置探针导管和方法的示例性实施例。 具体地,干涉仪可以转发电磁辐射。 此外,样品臂可以接收电磁辐射,并且可以包括便于从电磁辐射产生至少两个辐射以便照射结构的装置。 这种示例性布置可以被配置为相对于至少两个辐射的第二辐射来延迟所述至少两个辐射的第一辐射。
