Abstract:
This review critically assesses the applicability of retinal periphery imaging technology, scrutinizing its practical limitations and potential advancements within ophthalmology. It underscores the significant costs and the need to evaluate the clinical utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography devices. It emphasizes how clinicians should consider their practice-specific use-cases while investing in devices with capabilities like ultra-widefield OCT, autofluorescence imaging, and angiography. The paper also highlights the challenges associated with image acquisition, such as artifact management and patient cooperation for extended fixation periods. This review outlines the utility of these modalities in various retinal pathologies, as well as their contribution to telemedicine and personalized care, facilitated by artificial intelligence for improved image processing, quantification, and interpretation. These techniques potentially offer a more comprehensive understanding of peripheral retinal conditions and associated pathologies, thus influencing clinical decision-making, particularly in remote regions with limited specialist access.
摘要:
这篇综述批判性地评估了视网膜周边成像技术的适用性,仔细检查其在眼科领域的实际局限性和潜在进步。它强调了巨大的成本和需要评估光学相干断层扫描(OCT)和OCT血管造影设备的临床实用性。它强调了临床医生在投资具有超宽场OCT等功能的设备时,应如何考虑其特定于实践的用例,自发荧光成像,和血管造影。本文还强调了与图像采集相关的挑战,如伪影管理和患者合作延长固定期。这篇综述概述了这些模式在各种视网膜病变中的实用性,以及他们对远程医疗和个性化护理的贡献,由人工智能促进改进的图像处理,量化,和解释。这些技术可能提供对周边视网膜状况和相关病理的更全面的了解。从而影响临床决策,特别是在专家访问有限的偏远地区。
