Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has undergone tremendous growth since its first commercial introduction in 2014. Because it provides injection-free, capillary-resolution, 3-dimensional angiography of the retina and choroid, OCTA is likely to overtake fluorescein as the most important angiographic imaging technique in the eye. Nearly all manufacturers of ophthalmic OCT now offer OCTA products. A PubMed search now yields over 5700 articles on OCTA and related terms. Clinical investigators have already found a use for OCTA in almost every category of retinal and optic nerve diseases. This book is meant to bring together all this information so clinicians can have one authoritati...
This book is a practical guide to the revolutionary technique of non-invasive, dyeless OCT angiography imaging. This new diagnostic tool complements, and in part replaces, fluorescein angiography. Beginning with an introduction to the principles and interpretation of OCT angiography, the book covers operating principles, recent advances, the future of OCT, and diagnosis of vascular retinopathies. The book describes how this new technology is used to study inner and outer retina disorders, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and to classify choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) in a non-invasive manner, highlighting morphology, flow and depth. It also provides new technical and clinical infor...
This handbook volume is part of the Reference Series: Micro/Nano Technologies. This individual volume provides a comprehensive, self-contained, and authoritative knowledge in nanomedicine. It covers the theoretical and practical aspects of functionalizations of nanoparticles as nanomedicine, including surface activation, characterization, and microemulsion systems. As a Springer Major Reference Work it is continuously updated online, allowing newcomers and other readers to keep in touch with the most up-to-date information. The book is particularly recommended to undergraduates, postgraduates, researchers, scientists, and field experts. It will inspire innovations in the highly interdisciplinary field of nanomedicine.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography is an important new imaging modality that is already being used by ophthalmologists in retina centers worldwide. It uses motion as intrinsic contrast, thus obviating the need to inject any intravenous dye. It uses infrared light that is invisible to the patient, and only requires few seconds per scan. This makes it both easier to use and much better tolerated by patients than traditional dye-based fluorescein angiography (FA) and indocyanine green (ICG) angiography. Inside Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography of the Eye Drs. David Huang, Bruno Lumbroso, Yali Jia, and Nadia Waheed include detailed information on clinical applications and fund...
The first clinical application of the phacoemulsification cataract surgical technique (often referred to as “phaco”) was introduced in 1967 by Dr. Charles Kelman. This innovation is a big step forward for cataract surgery. With the development of intraocular lens (IOL) design, more and more premium presbyopia- and astigmatism-correction IOLs are being used in clinics. This progress has greatly improved the visual quality of cataract patients. This book discusses the basic surgical skills required to perform this procedure, premium IOL surgical design, specific surgical plans for clinically challenging cases, and more. It provides readers with a comprehensive knowledge of the current state of the art of cataract surgery and surgical design.
This book is a practical guide to the everyday use of the revolutionary technique of non-invasive, dyeless OCT angiography imaging. Beginning with an overview of the principles and technology, and terminology, the next chapter discusses practical problems of OCT Angiography that may be encountered by clinicians. The following sections cover the use of the technique for the diagnosis and management of different ocular disorders, with a final chapter providing guidance on writing an OCT Angiography report. Presented in a step by step format, the book is highly illustrated with images obtained from Optovue’s Avanti Widefield OCT hardware platform and Angiovue OCT angiography software. The book is authored by a highly experienced, internationally recognised team of experts led by Prof Bruno Lumbroso from Centro Italiano Macula in Rome. Key points Practical guide to the everyday use of OCT Angiography Covers use of the technique for diagnosing and managing many different ocular disorders Most images from Optovue’s Avanti Widefield OCT hardware platform and Angiovue OCT angiography software Highly experienced, well-recognised author team led by Prof Bruno Lumbroso
This book is the latest volume in the Recent Advances in Ophthalmology series providing ophthalmic trainees and ophthalmologists with the latest surgical and technological developments in the field. Divided into 21 chapters, each section is dedicated to a specific topic, explaining symptoms, investigation techniques, imaging, differential diagnosis and treatment methods. The pros and cons of various surgical procedures are covered in depth. New to this volume is discussion on advances in lamellar keratoplasty, deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty, Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), and a new technique – keratopigmentation. The text features nearly 400 clinical photographs, diagrams, flowcharts and tables to assist learning. Key points Latest volume in Recent Advances in Ophthalmology series Covers latest surgical and technological developments in the field Features new topics and nearly 400 images, flowcharts and tables Previous volume (9789386322784) published in 2017
