Abstract
Cross-polarization (CP) OCT is a so-called functional extension of OCT that seems to have benefits in visualization of myelin. During surgery it may be quite useful receiving information concerning myelination rate in white matter surrounding tumor mass. It this study it was shown that the quantification of peritumoral white matter using pseudocolor en-face OCT maps based on three optical coefficients (the rate of attenuation in the co- and cross-channel, and the interchannel attenuation difference) correlated well with histological data. Therefore, accurate quantitative CP OCT assessment of peritumoral white matter condition supports the developing the intraoperative implementation of this method.
