Sep 15, 2012 · OCT, especially high-resolution spectral-domain (SD-OCT), permits the visualization of all retinal layers, as well as the vitreous and the choroid. Localization of an abnormal finding to a specific layer of the retina often leads to a diagnosis that would not be otherwise possible.

Jan 15, 2023 · Incomplete RPE and outer retinal atrophy (iRORA) is a relatively new term defined by the Classification of Atrophy Meeting group (Table 1). This is a non-clinical finding that is defined purely by retinal imaging, primarily OCT.

Jul 1, 2015 · This noninvasive imaging technique produces high-resolution cross-sectional images of the retina, anterior segment, optic nerve head and retinal nerve fiber layer. OCT employs low-coherence interferometry of near-infrared light to acquire views of the eye, which resemble histological sections.

Retina. Each distinct retinal layer is visible on the OCT and corresponds well to histological studies. Certain types of retinal conditions can affect different retinal layers. The retinal nerve fiber layer and retinal ganglion cell layer are affected in conditions like glaucoma.

Jun 11, 2023 · By practicing these three steps, you will be better able to accurately (and comfortably) use OCT to your clinical advantage! 1. Know what’s normal. Familiarize yourself with how a normal OCT looks. There should be nine layers of …

Dec 31, 2019 · I did a quick survey and heard lots of terms used to describe the outer retinal lines as seen in OCT images.They included: PIL (photoreceptor integrity line), photoreceptors, COST (cone outer...

Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography of Small Choroidal Melanoma Comparison With Choroidal Nevus. Arch Ophthalmol.2012;130(7):850–856. doi:10.1001/archophthalmol.2012.1135. • OCT features of small choroidal melanoma include SRF, increased thickness, subretinal lipofuscin, and structural retinal alterations.

Large retinal blood vessels in the inner retina (or towards the vitreous) are present in most scans. It is important for the clinician to recognize the shadows cast by the retinal blood vessels as normal shadows, not as the absence of outer retinal tissue.

Jun 14, 2022 · Presenters describe how to use OCT imaging options, identify potential sources of artifacts, recognize OCT images of normal retina and common retinal diseases, and incorporate OCT into a comprehensive practice.
