Quotes about Heidelberg Engineering

1. “ I am becoming a big fan of spectral-domain OCT, especially Spectralis [Heidelberg Engineering, Vista, Calif.]...To this point with time-domain OCT, I have not been convinced that you can use this technology to follow patients over time. Now, with the faster image acquisition and better axial resolution we see with SD OCT, there is better quantitative peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer measurement for glaucoma management. The improved accuracy of the OCT segmentation allows for better long-term evaluation of patients. ”

2. Tracking Longitudinal Retinal Changes in Experimental Ocular Hypertension Using the cSLO and Spectral Domain-OCT

   Explore Article iovs.org (Aug 5 2010) Ophthalmology

   Purpose: Involvement of the outer retina is controversial in glaucoma. The aim of this study was to test firstly, whether the outer retina is affected in experimental ocular hypertension (OHT), and secondly, whether whole retinal thickness can be used as a surrogate marker of glaucomatous change. Methods: OHT was surgically induced in 20 DA-rats. Animals were imaged using a modified OCT-Spectralis at baseline, 3 and 8 weeks after OHT induction. ... (Read Full Article)

   Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging modality that uses low-coherent interferometry to visualize an optical cross-section of biological tissues. Over the past two decades, the ability to perform OCT imaging of the neural retina has afforded clinicians and researchers a highly reproducible method of diagnosing and following diabetic macular edema (DME) that compares favorably to other methods of DME assessment such as clinical examination and fundus photography. ...

    Background Optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) are white calcareous deposits, seen either superficially on the optic nerve head or buried within it. Diagnosis of ONHD is made by one or more ways: clinical exam, autofluorescence, ultrasound of the optic nerve, CT scan and/or visual field examination. The present study describes features of ONHD based on another diagnostic modality, the spectral-domain OCT (Spectralis). Methods This is an observational case series of ... (Read Full Article)

    Purpose. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is an advancement over time-domain OCT (TD-OCT) in the imaging of retinal disorders. Retinal thickness measured by SD-OCT differs from that measured by TD-OCT because the delineation of the outer boundary of the retina differs in the two instruments. The present study aims to evaluate this difference by comparing macular thickness, as obtained by Stratus and Spectralis OCT, in subjects without any known retinal ... (Read Full Article)
