FAMOS Aims to Make OCT Light Sources More Compact

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) light sources will shrink to one-fifth the size of conventional devices with the help of a tapered laser being developed by the European Union project FAMOS (Functional Anatomical Molecular Optical Screening). Seventeen partners have joined forces under the FAMOS project to bring OCT — a key technology displaying structures located a few millimeters inside the tissue — to the forefront.
