OCT Instruments: Scanning faster and smarter

The Mocean 3000 has recently been upgraded to perform 50,000 A-scans per second and is described by UK distributor Grafton as a state-of-the-art OCT device ideal for optometry practices. Leveraging advanced scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) technology, the device offers wide-range, high-resolution fundus imaging said to aid clinicians in easily locating retinal lesions before acquisition. The device’s SLO-based real-time retinal tracking, operating at 100 times per second with a 95% success rate, effectively minimises motion artefacts, providing clearer and more reliable results.  

Additionally, the Mocean 3000 offers an enhanced scan depth of 3.1mm that enables detailed visualisation of the retina, vitreous and choroid, improving the accuracy of diagnoses. Grafton says multiple scan patterns, including macula and glaucoma-specific options, deliver comprehensive insights into retinal and optic nerve health.
