Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging test that uses light waves to take cross-section pictures of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye (eyeSmart). This manual is a step by step guide to optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging and its interpretation. Beginning with an overview of OCT and histology, the following chapter discusses three basic steps in normal OCT analysis – morphology study, retinal and choroidal structure study, and reflective study. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of pathologic OCTs illustrates the evolution of various diseases, both spontaneous and after medical, surgical or laser therapy. Separate chapters are dedicated to ‘en face’ imaging and the role of OCT in the study and treatment of glaucoma. Authored by renowned experts Bruno Lumbroso and Marco Rispoli from Centro Oftalmologico Mediterraneo in Rome, this practical reference is highly illustrated with clinical images, illustrations and tables throughout. Key points Step by step guide to OCT for trainees Qualitative and quantitative data illustrates disease evolution, both spontaneous and after treatment Separate chapters dedicated to ‘en face’ imaging and OCT for glaucoma Written by expert ophthalmologists Bruno Lumbroso and Marco Rispoli

This book guides ophthalmologists through the interpretation of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images. The first phase of analysis subdivides each image into its smallest components. The second phase combines these fine details to allow diagnosis and identification of appropriate treatment. Written by leading European experts, this manual features detailed schematic illustrations as well as actual scans, and offers information on the technical and clinical uses in the study of glaucoma and on three dimensional images.

This book is a practical guide to the revolutionary technique of non-invasive, dyeless OCT angiography imaging. This new diagnostic tool complements, and in part replaces, fluorescein angiography. Beginning with an introduction to the principles and interpretation of OCT angiography, the book covers operating principles, recent advances, the future of OCT, and diagnosis of vascular retinopathies. The book describes how this new technology is used to study inner and outer retina disorders, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and to classify choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) in a non-invasive manner, highlighting morphology, flow and depth. It also provides new technical and clinical information on the study of glaucoma. Presented in a step by step format, the book is highly illustrated with images obtained from Optovue’s Avanti Widefield OCT hardware platform and Angiovue OCT angiography software. Key Points Practical guide to revolutionary technique of non-invasive, dyeless OCT angiography imaging Covers principles and interpretation, operating principles, recent advances, future of OCT and diagnosis of vascular retinopathies All images obtained from Optovue’s Avanti Widefield OCT hardware platform and Angiovue OCT angiography software Highly experienced, well-recognised author team led by Prof Bruno Lumbroso

This atlas examines developments in clinical en face imaging, comparing methods and devices and evaluating the most clinically efficient techniques. Divided into three sections, the first part introduces the principles of OCT (optical coherence tomography) and the anatomy and histology of the retina and surrounding area. The second section discusses en face OCT in diagnosing and treating different ocular diseases and disorders. More than 1000 pathological images obtained using different OCT devices are included. The final part describes future developments in the technological and scientific aspects of OCT and their clinical applications. Key points Evaluates clinical en face OCT techniques for numerous ocular diseases and disorders Each case includes pathological images from different devices for comparison Internationally-recognised European and US author and editor team
