Method for Quantitative Study of Airway Functional Microanatomy Using Micro-Optical Coherence Tomography

We demonstrate the use of a high resolution form of optical coherence tomography, termed micro-OCT (μOCT), for investigating the functional microanatomy of airway epithelia. μOCT captures several key parameters governing the function of the airway surface (airway surface liquid depth, periciliary li...
