Abstract
An optical Doppler tomography (ODT) system that permits imaging of flu id flow velocity in highly scattering media is described. ODT combines Doppler velocimetry with the high spatial resolution of low-coherence optical interferometry to measure fluid flow velocity at discrete spa tial locations. Tomographic imaging of particle flow velocity within a circular conduit submerged 1 mm below the surface in a highly scatter ing phantom of Intralipid is demonstrated.
