Determinants of Optical Coherence Tomography–Derived Minimum Neuroretinal Rim Width in a Normal Chinese Population

Purpose. To characterize an optical coherence tomography (OCT)–derived parameter, Bruch's membrane opening–minimum rim width (BMO-MRW), and its association with demographic and clinical parameters in normal Chinese subjects. Methods. Right eyes of 466 consecutive healthy subjects from a population-based study of Singaporean Chinese underwent Cirrus OCT imaging. The retinal internal limiting membrane (ILM) and BMO were automatically delineated using the built-in Cirrus algorithm. The standard 36 interpolated radial B-scans (72 BMO points, 5° increments) of each optic nerve head were manually extracted from the central circle (3.46-mm diameter). We used Matlab to measure the shortest distance from ...
