OCT RS-330 - Excellent 2017

Nidek RS-330 OCT: Advanced Imaging Technology for Precise Retinal Diagnosis and Treatment

The Nidek RS-330 OCT offers user-friendly interfaces catering to two distinct capture modes: Standard and Professional. Clinic preferences dictate the selection between these modes, each offering a different image capture interface. The Standard Mode is ideal for general screening and analysis, while the Professional Mode is favored for advanced, detailed screening and analysis, allowing for adjustments in scanning position and supporting the capture of precise OCT images.

One of the standout features of the RS-330 OCT is its acclaimed 3-D auto tracking and auto shot functions, simplifying the imaging process by enabling easy capture of fundus and OCT images in a single shot. This functionality streamlines procedures and enhances efficiency in clinical settings.

Operating the RS-330 OCT is further facilitated by a joystick, allowing operators to make fine adjustments during alignment for improved precision, even for eyes with poor fixation. This flexibility ensures accurate imaging results, contributing to diagnostic confidence.

Despite its advanced capabilities, the RS-330 OCT maintains a space-saving design, replacing two separate units with one combined unit. This compact footprint optimizes workspace efficiency without compromising on functionality.

With a wide area scan of 12 x 9 mm centered on the macula, the Retina Scan Duo of the RS-330 OCT enables comprehensive imaging. Additionally, the unit boasts a normative database providing a color-coded map indicating the distribution range of macular thickness in a population of normal eyes, aiding in comparative analysis and diagnostic interpretation.

Furthermore, the RS-330 OCT offers multiple OCT scan patterns, providing practitioners with a wide range of options to select scans tailored to specific retinal regions and ocular pathologies. This versatility ensures comprehensive evaluation and accurate diagnosis across various clinical scenarios.

In addition to its versatile imaging capabilities, the Nidek RS-330 OCT is equipped with a built-in 12-megapixel CCD camera, ensuring the production of high-quality fundus images. This advanced camera technology enhances diagnostic accuracy by providing clear and detailed images of the retina, facilitating comprehensive evaluation of ocular health.

The RS-330 OCT also facilitates stereo and panorama photography, simplifying the process with target marks displayed on an observation screen. This feature enables operators to effortlessly capture stereo images and create panorama compositions, further enhancing the diagnostic utility of the device.

Moreover, the RS-330 OCT incorporates a fundus autofluorescence (FAF) function, representing an advanced screening feature in retinal imaging. FAF is a non-invasive method for evaluating the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) without the use of contrast dye. This function proves invaluable in detecting early-stage retinal disorders, allowing for timely intervention and management.

Furthermore, the RS-330 OCT offers en face OCT imaging, designed for advanced studies of retinal pathology. This imaging modality facilitates in-depth exploration of factors that compromise photoreceptor function, as well as the assessment of retinal and choroidal vasculature. By providing detailed insights into retinal structure and function, en face OCT imaging contributes to comprehensive diagnostic evaluations and informed treatment decisions.

The Anterior Segment Adapter is an optional accessory that allows for observation and analysis of the anterior segment of the eye. With this feature, a series of precise measurements and evaluations can be performed.

The adapter enables measurement of the angle of the anterior chamber (ACA), which represents the angle between the posterior surface of the cornea and the surface of the iris. This measurement is crucial in assessing conditions such as glaucoma, providing important information about intraocular fluid flow.

Additionally, the adapter allows for the measurement of the distance between the iris and a specific point (500 µm or 750 µm) from the scleral spur on the posterior surface of the cornea (AOD500 or AOD750). These measurements are fundamental in evaluating the iridocorneal angle and detecting conditions such as acute angle closure.

The adapter also offers the capability to calculate the area circumscribed by the AOD500 (or AOD750) lines, the posterior surface of the cornea, a line drawn from the scleral spur parallel to the AOD line, and the surface of the iris (TISA500 or TISA750). This measurement provides a comprehensive assessment of the aqueous humor drainage area, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma.

In addition to measurements related to the iridocorneal angle, the adapter allows for evaluation of corneal thickness at different points, including the corneal apex and user-selected sites. This information is crucial in detecting irregularities in the corneal surface and planning refractive surgical procedures.

Finally, the adapter enables the creation of corneal thickness maps, providing a visual representation of the distribution of corneal thickness in different radial regions. These maps are useful in detecting corneal ectasias and assessing overall corneal health, contributing to a more comprehensive and accurate diagnosis of ocular conditions.
