What is Spectralis tracking laser tomography?

The SPECTRALIS® is an expandable diagnostic imaging platform which combines scanning laser fundus imaging with high-resolution OCT.

What imaging system does Spectralis use?

scanning laser fundus imaging
The SPECTRALIS Modules The SPECTRALIS® OCT imaging platform combines scanning laser fundus imaging with simultaneously acquired OCT.

How can I take October?

After the pupils are dilated, the patient is seated in front of the OCT machine, the head rests on a support to keep it motionless. The patient simply looks into the lens of the device at a small, blinking target, the equipment scans the eye without touching it. The OCT test is over in seconds.

How do you read pictures of October?

OCT is able to see the intricate and delicate layers of the retina, optic nerve and other ocular tissues (e.g. the RPE). – Localized highly reflective area under Bruch’s membrane, you may also see a slight flattening of the foveal contour.

How much does Heidelberg October cost?

Similarly, retinal images from patients with known pathologies are shown for four patient cases for both the Heidelberg and the low-cost OCT systems….Table 2.

What is Cirrus HD OCT?

The Cirrus HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) device is a spectral-domain optical coherence tomography system that allows faster data acquisition than the previous generation StratusOCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA), which is a time-domain device.

Who makes Spectralis Oct?

Heidelberg Engineering GmbH
SPECTRALIS® OCT Angiography Module | Heidelberg Engineering GmbH.

What are OCT images?

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-contact imaging technique which generates cross-sectional images of tissue with high resolution. Therefore it is especially valuable in organs, where traditional microscopic tissue diagnosis by means of biopsy is not available—such as the human eye.

How to do a fast scan on SPECTRALIS?

1. Press the IR+OCT button on the touch panel or the OCT button on the bottom right of the monitor. 2. Wait for the OCT module to calibrate. 3. Once the OCT goes live, select a preset scan pattern (Fast, RNFL, etc.). 4. Once the patient is aligned with the camera, begin by pushing the base of the camera forward towards the patient’s pupil. 5.

How is SPECTRALIS Oct the modular imaging platform?

This platform allows clinicians to configure each SPECTRALIS to the specific diagnostic workflow in the practice or clinic. Multimodal imaging options include: OCT, multiple scanning laser fundus imaging modalities, widefield and ultra-widefield, scanning laser angiography and OCT angiography.

Is the SPECTRALIS HRA + Oct a panning camera?

The SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT is always delivered with a panning camera head and an external touch panel control for easy adjustment and acquisition. The SPECTRALIS ® HRA imaging platform is especially designed for dye-based angiography such as Fluorescein Angiography (FA) and is equipped with several scanning laser fundus imaging modalities.

How does the Heidelberg SPECTRALIS HRA + Oct work?

The Heidelberg SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT provides a unique combi – nation of retinal angiography and optical coherence tomography. The ability of the SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT to automatically maintain the OCT scan at the selected location guarantees the correct alignment between OCT scan and its position on the fundus.
