OCT

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important to develop technologies to keep patients and staff safe, while treating the diseases of the eye

Research finds automated segmentation software examines OCT scans

Optical coherence tomography detects abnormalities and progressive thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer better than measurement of the visual fields.

Tools for higher-order OCT assessment enable evaluation of features of interest, such as targeted retinal layers or fluid compartments, and may allow for unique characterization of disease phenotypes and treatment response.

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) may be as an important tool in the management of patients with glaucoma, according to Robert L. Stamper, MD.
