Effect of Localized Mechanical Indentation on Skin Water Content Evaluated Using OCT

The highly disordered refractive index distribution in skin causes multiple scattering of incident light and limits optical imaging and therapeutic depth. We hypothesize that localized mechanical compression reduces scattering by expulsing unbound water from the dermal collagen matrix, increasing pr...
