Agreement Between Spectral Domain and Time Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

NCT00651989 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a well-established and safe technique that offers the possibility of visualizing retinal structure and measuring retinal thickness. Time-domain (TD)OCT is considered the "gold standard" technique for retinal thickness measurements. Spectral-domain (SD) OCT has to face the gold standard technique prior to obtain scientific and clinical consensus.

In our study in healthy subjects foveal thickness will be measured with both TD and SD OCT , and the data will be compared to evidence any difference between the two retinal measurements techniques.

Conditions

  • Normal Foveal Thickness

Interventions

OTHER

optical coherence tomography foveal thickness measurement

In the same session in one randomly selected eye of each subject three consecutive measurements of foveal thickness were performed using both time-domain OCT and spectral-domain OCT.
