Abstract
<jats:p>The line field (LF) design choice for the lateral image formation mechanism (lateral format) has historically been a fraction of the whole optical coherence tomography (OCT) field. However, as the OCT technology develops, the parallelised acquisition of LF-OCT formats (LF-time domain (TD)-OCT, LF-spectral domain (SD)-OCT, LF-swept source (SS)-OCT) offers benefits and capabilities, which may mean it is now becoming more mainstream. Prior reviews on OCT have focused on scanning point (SP) and, to a lesser extent, full field (FF), lateral formats, with, to our knowledge, no prior review specifically on the LF lateral format. Here, we address this gap in the literature by reviewing the history of each LF-OCT format, identifying the applications it has had and providing generic system design overviews. We then provide an analysis and discussion of the benefits and drawbacks of the format.</jats:p>
