Abstract
Exemplary apparatus and/or method can be provided using which, it is possible to provide information associated with at least one portion of a sample. For example, at least one electro-magnetic radiation received from the at least one portion of the sample can be separated into a plurality of first radiations, one of the first radiations having a phase delay that is different from a phase delay of another of the first radiations. In addition, at least one of the first radiations can be received and separated into second radiations according to wavelengths of the received at least one of the first radiations. Further, it is possible to detect the second radiations and generate information regarding a position of the at least one portion of the sample as a function of at least one characteristic of at least one interference of the first radiations. According to another exemplary embodiment, it is possible to provide system, method and computer accessible medium, in which data associated with first radiations can be obtained, and the information regarding a position of the at least one portion of the sample may be generated. Such information can be generated based on the data by separ…
