| Abstract: | We present an aberration cancelling optical design for a reflective adaptive optics - optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT) retinal imaging system. The optical performance of this instrument is compared to our previous multimodal AO-OCT/AO-SLO retinal imaging system. The feasibility of new instrumentation for improved visualization of microscopic retinal structures is discussed. Examples of images acquired with this new AO-OCT instrument are presented.OCIS codes: (110.4500) Optical coherence tomography, (010.1080) Active or adaptive optics, (220.1000) Aberration compensation, (170.0110) Imaging systems, (170.4470) Ophthalmology, (120.3890) Medical optics instrumentation |
