The Clinical Benefits of Scanning Wider and Deeper in the Retina
The application of widefield OCT and its adoption into clinical practice may provide significant benefits in the imaging of not only macular but also peripheral retinal disorders. First, widefield OCT will likely enhance visualization of macular disorders that span greater areas than standard scan widths. Second, this new OCT Cross-Sectional, En-Face, Angiographic and 3D 23mm Single-Scan widefield imaging technology is a game changer providing new insights into peripheral vitreoretinal pathology with clinical information not visible on ophthalmoscopy to guide treatment or monitoring in patients with a range of disorders from vascular chorioretinopaties to vitreoretinal disorders.
