New Imaging Technique For In-Vivo Tomographic Cataract Evaluation Using Optical Coherence Tomography

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Clinically, the primary means for cataract evaluation is by slit-lamp examination using a subjective grading system[1]. A new noninvasive technique called Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) has recently been used to image the anterior segment and provide the examiner with an additional assessment of cataract formations in the lens. Similar to ultrasound B scan imaging, OCT provides two-dimensional tomographs of optical reflectivity by transverse scanning the optical beam during sequential ranging measurements.
