Patent ID: 8570525

Claim:
An apparatus for imaging of objects by applying optical frequency domain tomography and provided with an adjusting system for setting a relative position of photosensitive elements and a spectrum image, and comprising a generating device emitting a light beam with a defined spectrum, a means for splitting the light beam into at least one object light beam and at least one reference light beam, a device forming a resultant light beam from the at least one reference light beam and the at least one object light beam and at least one device for spectral analysis of a light beam with a dispersion device, a set of optical elements, and a detection device of the spectrum, the detection device consisting of a single line of detectors, wherein the adjusting system is an automatically controlled device causing a relative angular displacement between at least one photosensitive element of the detection device and the spectrum image perpendicular to a propagation direction of the resultant light beam, the adjusting system further comprising at least one actuator acting to angularly displace at least one photosensitive element of the detection device, and movement of the at least one actuator causes the relative angular displacement between the at least one photosensitive element of the detection device of the spectrum and the spectrum image of the resultant light beam formed from the at least one reference light beam and the at least one object light beam split by the means for splitting the light beam with the defined spectrum emitted by the generating device.
