Abstract
Different methods of optical imaging of biological media based on time-resolved and low-coherence techniques are discussed, including the use of streak camera, Kerr gate, electronic holography and the low-coherence interferometry. The time-resolved techniques use ultrashort laser pulses and the photons traveling different paths can be detected selectively because they have different time of flight. The low-coherence techniques use light sources with broad spectrum and low coherence length to achieve high resolution.
