Anterior ophthalmic imaging

Abstract: Improvements in imaging chips and computer processing power have brought major advances in imaging of the anterior eye. Digitally captured images can be visualised immediately and can be stored and retrieved easily. Anterior ocular imaging techniques using slitlamp biomicroscopy, corneal topography, confocal microscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT), ultrasonic biomicroscopy, computerised tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are reviewed. Conventional photographic imaging can be used to qu… Show more

“…1,2 Similar to ultrasound, OCT also provides crosssectional images of tissue in situ, using light instead of sound, with reported resolutions between 10 to 25 m. 3,4 The ability to image tissue in vivo noninvasively, coupled with its nominal axial resolution, makes the OCT particularly suited for evaluation of ocular structures. More recently, applications of the OCT have evolved to include the evaluation of anterior structures such as the cornea and limbus, 5,6 the tear film, 7 and the tear meniscus height (TMH).…”

“…In all optical methods the iris pigment constitutes an obstacle to viewing the important structures of the lens equator. 1 Ultrasound biomicroscopy is vulnerable to distortion because of different sound velocities in different ocular and related media. All acoustic and light detection methods are therefore subject to image distortion by the intervening surfaces and require mathematical remodeling.…”

“…All acoustic and light detection methods are therefore subject to image distortion by the intervening surfaces and require mathematical remodeling. 1 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a valuable tool in the field of medical imaging. The eye is an ideal tissue for high-field MRI because of its wide variation in water content and in particular because of the requirement for high spatial resolution in a small field of view (FoV).…”
