Abstract
We present an enhanced experimental STOC-T system featuring a high-speed phase modulator for optimized illumination. The combination of this rapid phase modulator with numerical magnitude averaging significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio. The benefits of this enhancement are demonstrated through volumetric imaging of both reflecting and scattering objects.

Dr. Marta Mikuła-Zdańkowska graduated with a bachelor’s degree from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw (Application of Physics in Biology and Medicine, specialist – Ocular Optics and Optometry) and in 2012 started her master’s studies at Warsaw University of Technology (Photonics Engineering). Her doctoral work was devoted to digital holographic microscopy for optical microobject shape reconstruction. The aim of the research carried out within the framework of her PhD studies was to develop new solutions and measurement methods in holographic microscopy to overcome the basic measurement limitations of this technique. Dr. Mikuła-Zdańkowska joined the Physical Optics and Biophotonics team at ICTER in December 2022 for a postdoctoral position within the NCN DAINA project. At our centre, she is expanding her knowledge and combining her experience in optometry and photonics by developing the OCT method.
