The high spatial resolution and subsurface information contain valuable information about the underlying tissue structure and tracking of certain target structures is in principle possible. However, the small field-of-view complicates the selection of suitable regions-of-interest for tracking. Therefore, we extend an experimental setup and perform volumetric surface scanning of target structures to enlarge the field-of-view. We show that the setup allows for data acquisition and that precise merging of the volumes is possible with mean absolute errors from 0.041mm to 0.097mm.en2364-5504202216265de Gruyterhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Image GuidanceOptical Coherence TomographySurface ScanningTrackingVolume StitchingBiowissenschaften, BiologieMedizinJournal Article10.15480/882.480810.1515/cdbme-2022-001610.15480/882.4808Journal Article
