During BiOS/Photonics West 2011, I got to see a number of newly released products (see recent new product postings and stay tuned for later blog entries)--and to preview products not yet available.
During BiOS/Photonics West 2011, I got to see a number of newly released products (see recent new product postings and stay tuned for later blog entries)--and to preview products not yet available.
For instance, I learned about the latest version of Imagine Eyes’s rtx1 Adaptive Optics Retinal Camera, for which they had just received the first orders. The first device of its kind as far as I know, it features automated adaptive optics and captures en face cellular-level images of the retina in vivo without pupil dilation. It reportedly can discern things that optical coherence tomography (OCT) and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) cannot, and produces 1200 x 1200 micron images that can be tiled together to view larger areas. Imagine Eyes is now marketing to researchers, and expects FDA approval in about a year. Meantime the company is building a morphological image database and gathering feedback from clinical partners including France’s national ophthalmic center.
