Abstract:
1. An apparatus for providing imaging information associated with at least one portion of a sample, comprising: at least one structural first arrangement configured to provide (i) at least two first different wavelengths of at least one first electro-magnetic radiation within a first wavelength range provided on the at least one portion of the sample so as to determine at least one first transverse location of the at least one portion, and (ii) at least two second different wavelengths of at least one second electro-magnetic radiation within a second wavelength range provided on the at least one portion so as to determine at least one second transverse location of the at least one portion; at least one structural second arrangement configured to obtain a relative phase between at least one third electro-magnetic radiation being returned from the sample and at least one fourth electro-magnetic radiation returned from a reference to determine a relative depth location of the at least one portion; and at least one structural third arrangement configured to provide first information of the at least one portion based on the first transverse location and the relative depth location, and second information of the at least one portion based on the second transverse location and the relative depth location, wherein the imaging information includes the first and second information.
