1. A system for measuring group velocity dispersion of a sample, the system comprising:

  • a Fourier domain optical coherence tomography imaging system configured to acquire spectral interference data corresponding to a region of a sample; and

    a processor coupled to the Fourier domain optical coherence tomography imaging system, the processor configured to;

    convert the spectral interference data into spatial image data;

    apply a phase to the spectral interference data to modify a spatial domain image; and

    compare a first phase expression corresponding to the region of the sample to a second phase expression to derive a measure of group velocity dispersion associated with the sample.
