OCT round-up: Scanning the market

Emma White highlights the latest developments in optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology, for the early detection and monitoring of major eye conditions, from faster scan times and enhanced fundus imaging to remote operation for safe social distancing

Optopol’s new ‘Structure and Function’ analysis software combines the results of its Revo OCT (Structure) with the results of its PTS 920 Visual Field Analyser (Function) for the improved diagnosis and monitoring of major eye conditions, particularly chronic open angle glaucoma (COAG). The Revo NX 130, launched this year, delivers an impressive 130,000 A scans per second – ‘the fastest on the market’, according to Optopol. As with all Revo OCTs, including the Revo 60, Revo 80 and Revo FC (with colour fundus imaging), the Revo NX 130 provides posterior and anterior scans and optional biometry, angio and topography software. Fully automated or manual modes are available while a voice guides the patient through the scan process. The devices can be operated remotely from another consulting room or even off-site, enabling professionals to ensure social distancing and shield vulnerable patients. Downloadable marketing materials include patient leaflets, adverts, posters, press releases and phone scripts.
