Optical coherence tomography (OCT) holds great promise as a routine research tool for analysis of identifying the boundaries between normal and diseased breast tissue in vitro and in vivo. However, despite the depth penetration afforded by this imaging modality, light attenuation in tissues imposes
Here we examined the effect of human normal breast (NB) and breast cancer (BC) tissues in vitro after treatment with glycerol in conjunction with ultrasound (surgeonperformed, SP) by OCT for functional imaging to monitor. 60% glycerol (G) and SP was simultaneously applied for 5 min. Depth-and time-r
