Abstract
We investigated the impact of laser coherence length on reconstructed flow contrast images with our innovative speckle contrast diffuse correlation tomography (scDCT) device. We tested three lasers with varied coherence lengths: >10 meters, ~3.3 millimeters, and ~390 micrometers. Lasers with coherence lengths larger than millimeters yielded good-quality flow images with higher signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) and less image distortion. We concluded that scDCT measurements do not require excessively long coherence lasers with high costs.
