Optical herence tomogphy (OCT) is a new noninvasive noncontacttns pupill aimaging technology which can image retinal structures in vivo with a resolution of 5 to 8 microns. Cross-sectional images of the

retina  are   produced   using  the  optical   backscattering   of  Iight   in  a  fashion   analogous   to   B-  scan ultrasonography  and   Ifo I micros  py. Cross-sectional images of the retina   is revolutionizing the early

detection and treatment and greatly enhanced our quality of patient care.

Applications
In  vivo   cross-sectional  images  and quant  tive analysis of retinal features to
opt  lize the dlagnosis and monitoring of retinal disease and for enhanced pre- and
post-therapy assessment.
High-quality images  and accurate measures RNFL and the optic nerve head to aid in the detection and management of glaucoma.
Cross-sectional images are valuable for
clinical evaluation of macular holesmacular edema and other retinal pathologies.
Precise location of  pathology to  expand diagnostic confidence and therapeutic preclslon.
