Abstract

Optical Coherence Tomography is an optical imaging technique providing subsurface structural images with a resolution at histological level. It has been widely studied and applied in both research and clinical practice with special interest in cancer diagnosis. One of the major queries today is to represent the images in a standardized way. To this aim the qualitative image recorded on the tissue will be transformed into a quantitative model. The solution provided here is able to diagnose healthy versus cancerous tissue independently from the measurement settings.
