Hyperpigmented Torpedo Maculopathy with Pseudo-Lacuna: A 5-Year Follow-Up
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to describe a case of globally hyperpigmented torpedo maculopathy that also contained a novel central lesion resembling a 'pseudo-lacuna'. We compare the morphology of the lesion after 5 years of follow-up. CASE PRESENTATION An asymptomatic 10-year-old Caucasian male was referred by his optometrist after having found a hyperpigmented lesion on routine dilated ...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography and Corpus Callosum Index in Cognitive Assessment of Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease of central nervous system. Different approaches have been developed to study MS progression and cognitive dysfunction as the major symptom of the disease. The current study compared Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Corpus Callosum Index (CCI) for the early evaluation of cognitive dysfunction in MS patients. Objectives: T...
متن کاملOptical coherence tomography visualization of posterior vitreous membrane adhesion in uncomplicated solitary retinal astrocytic hamartoma
Introduction Retinal astrocytic hamartomas are benign tumors of the retinal nerve fiber layer with a characteristic appearance on ophthalmoscopic examination. Although these lesions may be found in isolation without systemic involvement, they usually occur in association with tuberous sclerosis. To our knowledge, there are few reports presenting optical coherence tomography(OCT)findings of vitr...
متن کاملClinical Applications of Optical Coherence Tomography in Ophthalmology
Assessment of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer and macular thickness can be determined in ophthalmology using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Decreased nerve fiber layer thickness and macular ganglion cell thickness in optic nerve ischemia have been correlated with visual field loss. OCT allows deep optic nerve head evaluation which helps understand pathophysiology of diseases. Furtherm...
متن کاملExperimental Visualization of Labyrinthine Structure with Optical Coherence Tomography
Introduction:Visualization of inner ear structures is a valuable strategy for researchers and clinicians working on hearing pathologies. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high-resolution imaging technology which may be used for the visualization of tissues. In this experimental study we aimed to evaluate inner ear anatomy in well-prepared human labyrinthine bones.Materials and Methods:Thr...
