Comparison of algorithms for detection of localised nerve fibre layer defects using scanning laser polarimetry.
AIMS To evaluate different algorithms used to analyse retinal nerve fibre layer thickness (RNFL) data obtained by scanning laser polarimetry, in order to compare their relative abilities to discriminate between patients with glaucomatous localised nerve fibre layer defects and normal subjects. METHODS 48 eyes of 48 glaucomatous patients with localised RNFL defects and 53 eyes of 53 healthy su...

متن کاملLaser scanning tomography of localised nerve fibre layer defects.
AIMS Retinal nerve fibre layer photography is a well established method to qualitatively document early structural changes which might be induced by primary open angle glaucoma. The aim was to analyse localised retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) defects in a new quantitative way with respect to surface topography, defect width, and surface reflectivity by means of the technique of confocal scanni...
متن کاملScanning Laser Polarimetry and Optical Coherence Tomography for Detection of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Defects
PURPOSE To compare the ability of scanning laser polarimetry with variable corneal compensation (GDx-VCC) and Stratus optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect photographic retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) defects. METHODS This retrospective cross-sectional study included 45 eyes of 45 consecutive glaucoma patients with RNFL defects in red-free fundus photographs. The superior and inferior...
متن کاملEffects of artefacts on scanning laser polarimetry of retinal nerve fibre layer thickness measurement.
AIMS To investigate the effects of artefacts on scanning laser polarimetry of the retinal nerve fibre layer. METHODS Six eyes of six normal volunteers and an artificial nerve fibre layer were examined using the nerve fibre analyser II. The retinal nerve fibre layer thickness (RNFLT) was measured in each of four 90 degree quadrants, superior (S), temporal (T), inferior (I), and nasal (N), at 1...
