Which image artifact results when optical coherence tomography uses broadened laser signal?

💡 Explanation

Broadened laser signals decrease temporal coherence, which limits resolving fine details; therefore axial resolution decreases, because coherence length is inversely proportional to bandwidth, rather than lateral resolution which depends on focusing optics.
