Apparatus and method for increasing the sensitivity in the detection of optical coherence tomography and low coherence interferometry (“LCI”) signals by detecting a parallel set of spectral bands, each band being a unique combination of optical frequencies. The LCI broad bandwidth source is split...http://www.google.de/patents/US20100094576?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US20100094576 - APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RANGING AND NOISE REDUCTION OF LOW COHERENCE INTERFEROMETRY LCI AND OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY OCT SIGNALS BY PARALLEL DETECTION OF SPECTRAL BANDS
