An optical coherence tomographic device may include: a light source; a measurement light generator that generates measurement light and generates reflected light from a target region in a scattering sample by irradiating the target region with the measurement light; a reference light generator that generates reference light; an interference light generator that generates interference light by combining the reflected light and the reference light; an interference light detector that detects the interference light and generates interference signals by converting the interference light; and a processor. The processor may cause the OCT device to execute: acquiring tomographic images for a same cross section in the target region in time series from the interference signals; calculating an entropy of the generated interference signals based on the tomographic images; and specifying a dynamic part in the tomographic images based on the calculated entropy.

An ophthalmic apparatus may include: a wavelength sweeping light source; a reference optical system; a calibration optical system; a light receiving element configured to receive calibration interference light which is a combination of calibration light and reference light; and a signal processor configured to sample a calibration interference signal outputted from the light receiving element when it receives the calibration interference light. The signal processor may sample the calibration interference light in at least first and second frequency bands, which are different and used for measuring a specific region of a subject eye. The ophthalmic apparatus calculates a difference between first and second waveforms, the first waveform being a waveform of the calibration interference signal that is sampled in the first frequency band and Fourier transformed, the second waveform being a waveform of the calibration interference signal that is sampled in the second frequency band and Fourier transformed.

An optical tomographic imaging apparatus capable of acquiring a two-dimensional or/and three-dimensional tomographic image having higher SNR and quality by cancelling phase change caused by birefringence of a sample in average processing using a predetermined kernel region, and calculating a global phase difference of each pixel in the kernel.

Provided is an optical tomographic device for simultaneously acquiring a plurality of tomographic images at a same position in a subject without narrowing a depthwise measurement range. A measurement light generator generates at least two measurement lights with different optical path lengths, superimposes the at least two measurement lights, radiates the resultant light to a subject, and splits reflected light reflected from the subject into at least two reflected lights. A reference light generator generates at least two reference lights with different optical path lengths. An interfering light generator combines the at least two reflected lights and the at least two reference lights having corresponding different optical path lengths, to generate at least two interfering lights. An interfering light detector detects the at least two interfering lights independently by at least two interfering light detectors.

Light generated by the measurement light generator may at least include first and second correction light. The processor may correct a time lag between sampling timings of the first and second signal processing units by using a first and second correction signal converted from the first and second correction light.
