OCT Cirrus 500 - Excellent 2016

ZEISS OCT Cirrus 500: Advancing Ocular Imaging with Unparalleled Precision and Efficiency

As the world’s leading OCT innovator, ZEISS has been at the forefront of industry-defining advancements that have made OCT the standard of care. Today, that leadership continues with new clinical assessment tools for CIRRUS 500. Dense data cubes, tightly spaced B-scans (either 30 or 47 μm apart), ensure that small areas of pathology are imaged. For reference, a human hair is about 40-120 μm in diameter. FastTrac reduces eye motion artifacts without sacrificing patient throughput with a proprietary scan acquisition strategy, high speed 20 Hz LSO camera, and single-pass alignment scanning. With FastTrac, you can scan at the highest resolution at the same location at each visit and utilize automated wellness reports that provide immediate guidance on patient care.

Additionally, the CIRRUS 500 is the first retinal OCT with full anterior chamber imaging and measurement capability. It can expand your ability to include comprehensive imaging and quantification of the anterior segment for refractive surgery planning and follow-up, corneal evaluation, and glaucoma assessment. The ZEISS CIRRUS platform protects legacy data, guided progression analysis, and base lines which empower diagnostic decision-making. Technological advancements in speed, scan protocols, and efficiencies found within the CIRRUS 500 enable you to provide patients with seamless continuity at every step of their care, when referring to legacy CIRRUS 4000 data.

The Zeiss OCT Cirrus 500 boasts cutting-edge features that elevate diagnostic precision and efficiency. Powered by a Superluminescent diode (SLD) emitting light at 840 nm, this device delivers exceptional imaging clarity, crucial for intricate ocular assessments. With a remarkable scan speed ranging from 27,000 to 68,000 A-scans per second, practitioners can swiftly capture detailed cross-sectional images, aiding in the swift diagnosis and monitoring of ocular conditions.

Furthermore, the Cirrus 500 offers impressive A-scan depth, penetrating tissue up to 2.0 mm, ensuring comprehensive visualization of retinal layers and structures. Its 1024 points per scan contribute to the intricate detailing essential for precise analysis. The expansive field of view, measuring 36 degrees width by 22 degrees height, facilitates comprehensive examination of ocular structures, allowing practitioners to capture a wide array of information in a single scan.

These advanced technological specifications underscore the Cirrus 500's commitment to providing clinicians with unparalleled diagnostic capabilities. By combining high-speed scanning with superior imaging depth and expansive field of view, this device empowers practitioners to deliver precise, comprehensive care to their patients with confidence and efficiency.

In addition to its remarkable scanning capabilities, the Zeiss OCT Cirrus 500 incorporates innovative iris imaging methodology, enhancing its diagnostic utility. Equipped with a high-resolution CCD camera boasting a resolution of 1280 x 1024, this device delivers detailed images of the iris, enabling clinicians to assess subtle changes and abnormalities with exceptional clarity.

Moreover, the Cirrus 500's iris imaging methodology provides valuable insights into ocular health and pathology, complementing its comprehensive retinal imaging capabilities. By capturing detailed images of the iris, practitioners can evaluate factors such as iris architecture, pigment distribution, and vascular patterns, aiding in the diagnosis and management of various ocular conditions.

Despite its advanced features, the Cirrus 500 remains remarkably compact and portable, with a weight of just 34 kg. This lightweight design enhances its versatility, allowing clinicians to easily transport and deploy the device in various clinical settings. Whether in a hospital, clinic, or mobile screening unit, the Cirrus 500 offers unparalleled diagnostic capabilities in a convenient and user-friendly package.

In summary, the Zeiss OCT Cirrus 500 sets a new standard in ocular imaging technology, combining advanced scanning capabilities with innovative iris imaging methodology. With its high-resolution CCD camera, compact design, and exceptional diagnostic utility, the Cirrus 500 empowers clinicians to deliver precise, comprehensive care to their patients with ease and confidence.
