New products such as fast scanning lasers have been introduced to address the Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) application, an imaging technology that is finding wide use in medical fields such as ophthalmology, cardiology and endoscopy, as well as industrial applications such as metrology and production line inspection. Santec's new office in London will support customers in Europe for products from Santec's Component, Test Equipment and OCT business units.
