Stick-slip nonuniform rotation distortion correction in distal scanning optical coherence tomography catheters

open access: yesJournal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2020
We present a robust and fiducial-marker-free algorithm that can identify and correct stick-slip distortion caused by nonuniform rotation (or beam scanning) in distally scanned catheters for endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) images.
