The dynamic range of current optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) images is limited by the fixed scanning intervals. High speed OCT devices introduce the possibility of extending the flow signal dynamic range. In this study, we created a novel scanning pattern for achieving high dynamic range (HDR)-OCTA with a superior scanning efficiency. We implemented a bidirectional, interleaved scanning pattern that is sensitive to different flow speeds by adjustable adjacent inter-scan time intervals. We found that an improved flow dynamic range can be achieved by generating 3 different B-scan time intervals using 3 repetitions.
