Auto-aligning handheld optical coherence tomography probe

Auto-aligning handheld optical coherence tomography probe

Unmet Need Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optical imaging modality that uses low-coherence light to non-invasively obtain high resolution ocular images of structures including the retina and optic nerve. OCT has advantages over other…

Non-invasive peripheral retinal scanner using OCT

Non-invasive peripheral retinal scanner using OCT

Unmet Need Images and light that sporadically appear in an individual’s visual field are known as “Flashes and floaters.” These optical aberrations bring approximately 150,000 patients in for eye exams each year in the United…

Automatic segmentation software to diagnose retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) from optical coherence tomography images in preterm infants

Automatic segmentation software to diagnose retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) from optical coherence tomography images in preterm infants

Unmet Need Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a developmental vascular proliferative disorder that occurs in approximately 50-70% of preterm infants and is a leading cause of childhood blindness. The most critical factor in identifying ROP…
