Abstract
Stimulated Raman scattering spectroscopic optical coherence tomography (SRS-SOCT) is a recently developed molecular imaging technique that leverages the spatial and spectral multiplexing capabilities of SOCT with the molecular sensitivity and specificity of SRS for fast, tomographic, label-free molecular imaging. Here we present a theoretical framework for SRS-SOCT, discuss its advantages and limitations, and show experimental results from excised human adipose tissue. We also discuss our recent efforts in developing a novel light source, based on a coherently broadened laser, that is specifically tailored for SRS-SOCT. Implications of this label-free, molecular imaging technique for biomedical applications are discussed.
