Optimize Pediatric OCT Imaging
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Retinal Disease, Glaucoma, Optic Nerve Diseases
In brief
Handheld optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become an important imaging modality to evaluate the pediatric retina. The objective of this pilot study is to compare a new contact OCT system (Theia Imaging) with an investigational noncontact OCT system (Duke Biomedical Engineering) to assess their ability to image the pediatric retina. The investigators hypothesize that the contact OCT system is superior in imaging larger areas of the retina (larger field-of-view), while it has similar resolution to image the retina substructures (non-inferior image quality).
