An optical image measurement device 1 causes an interference light generator to split a low-coherence light into a signal light and a reference light, and superimposes the signal light propagated through a measured object 5000 and the reference light propagated through the reference mirror 9 to generate an interference light. Two-dimensional photosensor arrays 14 and 15 detect the interference light. A computer 16 forms an image of the measured object 5000 based on the detection result. By inserting the optical fiber bundle 5 into the measured object 5000 to perform a measurement, a tomographic image of a deep tissue of the measured object 5000 can be obtained. Furthermore, the optical image measurement device 1 can form a high-resolution image of the deep tissue of the measured object 5000 because performing a measurement using the OCT technology.
