Abstract

In this study, we aim to validate the analytical Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) equation for determining attenuation coefficients using a 1310 nm Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) system. Our experimental results successfully confirm the validity of the equation, achieving unprecedented precision with a standard deviation below 0.01 mm⁻¹ for intralipid samples. Furthermore, we introduce a systematic framework for attaining high precision in OCT attenuation measurements.
