## Abstract ## Background In vivo, nonβinvasive optical coherence tomography (OCT) permits highβresolution imaging of tissue surfaces and subsurfaces, with the potential capability for detection and mapping of epithelial pathologies. ## Purpose To evaluate the clinical capability of nonβinvasive
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Optical coherence tomography (OCT) permits highβresolution imaging of tissue subsurfaces up to 2βmm in depth. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of OCT in the characterization of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CI
