We propose a method of quantum optical coherence tomography (QOCT) that utilizes a nonclassical source of entangled photons (signal and idler). By using type-II spontaneous parametric downconversion, where signal and idler photons emerge with orthogonal polarizations, it is possible to probe the biological sample using a polarization-entangled state.
