The current focus of my research is catheter-based polarization sensitive OFDI. With novel reconstruction algorithms we attempt to compensate for polarization distortions that arise as light propagates through the catheter. This enables improved imaging of tissue birefringence and provides a complementary contrast mechanism especially for collagen. Imaging of collagen is of high relevance for intracoronary imaging as well as in a range of other endoscopic applications.
