Popis: A compact OCT device and a method for image reconstruction are described. The proposed algorithm contains a novel procedure for motion artifact suppression based on a correction of the phase of the original interferometric signal due to the mutual correlation of adjacent A-scans. This procedure corrects distortions caused by unwanted displacements of the probe relative to the object in real time at a speed of up to 3 mm/s and an image acquisition rate of 20 B-scans per second. All processing is performed in real time using only the CPU, allowing the device to be controlled from a consumer-grade laptop or compact PC without the need for a discrete GPU. Due to its compact size, the device can be used in the conditions of an ENT examination room or operating room and can be freely moved to another room without the help of additional personnel, if necessary.
