Swept-Source OCT Angiography: SS OCT AngioTM

Swept-source OCT angiography of macular telangiectasia type 2.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To evaluate the central macular microvascular network in patients with macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel2) using optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based microangiography (OMAG). PATIENTS AND METHODS Prospective, observational study of patients with MacTel2 evaluated using a swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) prototype. OMAG was performed using a 3 mm × 3 mm central foveal...

A Novel Strategy for Quantifying Choriocapillaris Flow Voids Using Swept-Source OCT Angiography

Purpose To achieve reproducible imaging of the choriocapillaris and associated flow voids using swept-source OCT angiography (SS-OCTA). Methods Subjects were enrolled and SS-OCTA was performed using the 3 × 3 mm scan pattern. Blood flow was identified using the complex optical microangiography (OMAG) algorithm. The choriocapillaris was defined as a slab from the outer boundary of Bruch's memb...

Lens-based wavefront sensorless adaptive optics swept source OCT

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has revolutionized modern ophthalmology, providing depth resolved images of the retinal layers in a system that is suited to a clinical environment. Although the axial resolution of OCT system, which is a function of the light source bandwidth, is sufficient to resolve retinal features at a micrometer scale, the lateral resolution is dependent on the delivery ...

New Swept-Source OCT for Glaucoma: Improvements and Advantages

When we refer to sweptsource optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT), “swept source” refers to the type of laser incorporated into the device. Instead of the superluminescent diode laser typical of conventional spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT), SS-OCT uses a short-cavity swept laser. Although the swept-source laser has a wavelength centered at approximately 1 μm, the laser actually changes, because i...
