Confocal amplitude image of test chart: (a) without optical amplification (number of image integration = 10, corresponding to an image acquisition time of 10.2 ms or a frame rate of 97.9 fps), (b) without optical amplification (number of image integration = 1, corresponding to an image acquisition time of 1.02 ms or a frame rate of 979 fps), (c) with optical amplification (number of image integration = 10, corresponding to an image acquisition time of 10.2 ms or a frame rate of 97.9 fps), (d) with optical amplification (number of image integration = 1, corresponding to an image acquisition time of 1.02 ms or a frame rate of 979 fps). (e) Amplitude image contrast with respect to number of image accumulation.
