Abstract

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), a new imaging technique, has found plenty of applications in biological imaging, especially in ophthalmology [1-3]. It is an interferometric technique that relies on the use of light sources of short temporal- coherence to perform optical sectioning. Using a light source with a wide bandwidth (325 nanometers), sub-micrometer resolution was achieved recently [4]. With such a wide bandwidth, dispersion in biological tissues is an increasingly deleterious effect.
