Abstract

OCT is highly potential for dynamic analysis of eccrin sweat glands. It is found in our experiment that the spiral lumen of an active sweat gland expands drastically in response to mental stress. Mental-stress-induced sweating is analyzed quantitatively based on time-sequential OCT images.
