OCT Multilayer Test Targets from BioPixS are precision-fabricated optical phantoms designed to simulate layered biological structures for rigorous validation of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) systems. These test targets reproduce optical properties and geometries resembling stratified nature of tissues like epithelial and sub-epithelial layers, enabling realistic assessment of axial resolution, depth penetration, and system performance under multilayer imaging scenarios.
Developed with a multilayered architecture embedded within a solid polymer phantom substrate, these test targets ensure both optical realism and mechanical durability, ideal for consistent benchmarking and reproducible imaging results across time and systems.
Whether you’re testing a commercial OCT device or developing custom imaging modalities, these multilayer targets offer a reproducible and standardized solution to validate depth-resolving capabilities in both research and industrial settings.
