TL;DR: A plurality of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images may be acquired, at least some of which are acquired at different stimulus intensities as discussed by the authors, which are used to profile the molecular contrast agent concentration distribution of the sample.

TL;DR: Volumetric optical coherence tomography vibrometry is described, a new technique capable of depth-resolved displacement measurements in 3D space with picometer sensitivity within the unopened mouse cochlea, which finds that the tectorial membrane sustains traveling wave propagation differently than the more commonly measured basilar membrane.

TL;DR: In this paper, a combined experimental and theoretical effort was made to explore the ring insertion process in detail, and the results provided important new insights into the dynamics of hydrogen-bonded networks.

TL;DR: The 2-D motion of the organ of Corti in mice was measured and it was found that the structures that stimulate the outer hair cell stereocilia, the tectorial membrane and reticular lamina, were sharply tuned in the radial direction, suggesting that radial tuning comes from passive mechanics within the hair cell epithelium, and that these mechanics, at least in part, may tune the gain of cochlear amplification.

TL;DR: A novel algorithm for full-range imaging by suppression of the complex conjugate artifact in phase-shifting Fourier domain optical coherence tomography using the projection of multiple phase- shifted interferograms onto an orthogonal basis set to reconstruct the complex interferogram.
