Abstract
An optical coherence tomography device is disclosed for improved imaging. Reduced levels of speckle in the images generated by the device are obtained by forming a B-scan from a plurality of A-scans, wherein each resolution cell of the B-scan is generated through compounding of a subset of the A-scans and wherein at least some of the subset of A-scans are separated by at least half the diameter of a speckle cell both tangent to and orthogonal to the B-scan at that cell.

(canceled)
A retinal imaging device comprising:
- a first imaging system having a detection component conjugate to an image plane in a first structure of the retina;
- a second imaging system having a detection component conjugate to an image plane in a second structure of the retina;
- wherein the first and second structures of the retina are located at different depths within the retina;
- and
- wherein the first and second imaging systems share a common portion of an optical path.
