Pretty cool. I found another interesting article about a model eye for OCT or 
as they call it a "phantom tissue." It can be used for training, calibration, 
device certification and evaluation of various OCT models.

There are a few different devices out like that.

This one is head-held and portable:
http://www.bioopticsworld.com/articles/print/volume-6/issue-6/features/biomedical-device-design-development-borrowed-components-for-cost-effective-imaging-devices.html

i think most of them work on NIR imaging. It would be interesting to see the 
success/failures and what criteria is linked to them (skin tone, subcutaneous 
fat, ischemia, etc)

Wonder what the price is ???? =o
