New dimension of OCT Technology to be unveiled by Topcon at Optrafair 2015 Newbury, UK, 3rd February 2015.
Once again TOPCON brings the first of a new dimension of OCT machines to the market. The next stage in the evolution of OCT has arrived - The NEW Swept Source DRI OCT Triton series*1 with 1,050nm wavelength and the world’s fastest*2 scanning speed of 100,000 A-Scans/second, is the first and only posterior segment swept source instrument. The longer wavelength of light allows the DRI OCT Triton to reveal posterior segment structures previously invisible to conventional forms of OCT, rapidly penetrating ocular tissues such as the choroid and even the sclera, without the light source being obscured by cataracts or other media opacities. The DRI OCT Triton can reveal the entire tomogram from vitreous through to sclera at the press of a single button with high sensitivity and speed, without sacrificing the view of one structure over another.
The DRI Triton is capable of capturing 256 B-scans in just three seconds. 256 3D cube scans reduce interpolation between slices and allow the most revealing imagery of individual layers available. With greater signal penetration through the RPE the Triton is capable of full choroidal thickness mapping and coronal imagery to a digital resolution of one micron. Powerful analysis tools are supported by a robust normative database.
