  • Abstract
    In this research, we developed an algorithm to extract four different optical parameters including scattering coefficient, anisotropy factor, birefringence coefficient, and fast axis angle from polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) images. By this method, the optical characteristic of normal and different kinds of lesions in human vessel can be quantitative described.
