1. A multimode optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging system comprising:
a light source arranged to emit coherence light in a path to scan a sample;
an optical parameter unit through which the coherence light propagates in the path;
a detector arranged to detect reflected light, the reflected light being light reflected in the path as a result of the coherence light scanning the sample by way of the optical parameter unit; and
a controller arranged to control at least one of the light source or the optical parameter unit, the controller performing a set of operations comprising:
receiving an indication of a selected mode from a plurality of available operating modes of the multimode OCT system, the plurality of available operating modes including at least a first mode, a second mode and a third mode, wherein each of the plurality of available operating modes:
has an associated scan pivot location relative to the sample;
has a different corresponding bandwidth than other operating modes of the plurality of available operating modes; and
provides at least one of a corresponding predetermined axial resolution or a corresponding predetermined imaging depth; and
configuring at least one of a bandwidth or a scan pivot location of the multimode OCT system based on the selected operating mode.
