Preferred Label : Angle-Resolved Low-Coherence Interferometry;
NCIt synonyms : a/LCI;
NCIt definition : A biomedical imaging technology which uses the properties of scattered light to measure
the size of cell structures at submicron-level accuracy. It combines the depth-resolving
ability of low-coherence techniques with the ability to measure subcellular morphologies
of light scattering. By isolating the angular scattering distribution from cellular
nuclei at various tissue depths, a/LCI can provide biomarkers based on morphology
and provide feedback to physicians to guide physical biopsies.;
