Filter by:Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) is a determinant progress to study retinal and choroidal vasculature without using a dye injection. OCT-A yields interesting results in different pathologies such as diabetes mellitus, age-related macular degeneration, hypertension blood pressure, particularly by affecting vascular density. Normative database are necessary to compare OCT-A parameters between patients and controls. However, OCT-A devices from different manufactures may give different values for the same subject. It seems to be obvious that each OCT-A device should have its own normative database. In the literature, OCT-A normative databases are developing using different types of devices, but none is available for Heidelberg OCT-A in Caucasians. The purpose of this project is to create a normative database of retinal microvascularisation using Spectralis Heidelberg optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) ® in normal controls.
Corrective eye surgeries, such as Lasik, are widely used to correct focusing problems such as myopia, or nearsightedness. Often these patients develop other conditions like myopic maculopathy or glaucoma which require monitoring with optical coherence tomography (OCT). Since OCT is a light-based test and changes the refractive status of the eye (in the cornea or the lens), it can potentially affect the results of the OCT measurements but has not been sufficiently studied. This pilot study aims at studying the potential change in OCT parameters in the eye after undergoing such surgery.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of cancer among the Caucasian population. A BCC diagnosis is commonly establish by means of an invasive punch biopsy (golden standard). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a safe non-invasive diagnostic modality which may replace biopsy if an OCT assessor is able to establish a high confidence BCC diagnosis. Hence, for clinical implementation of OCT, diagnostic certainty should be as high as possible. Artificial intelligence in the form of a clinical decision support system (CDSS) may improve the diagnostic certainty of newly trained OCT assessors by highlighting suspicious areas on OCT scans and by providing diagnostic suggestions (classification). This study will evaluate the effect of a CDSS on the diagnostic certainty and accuracy of OCT assessors.
To evaluate the clinical significance of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in interventional treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS).
This project aims to validate ex vivo the use of the OCTAV® prototype integrating the "dermoscope" function before an in vivo application, by comparing images obtained by the OCTAV® prototype integrating the "dermoscope" function with the histological sections of a skin tumor excision corresponding to them exactly, at the same level.
Investigators aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of expansion capacity of zotarolimus-eluting durable-polymer stent assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in vitro and vivo study.
This prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single arm, objective performance goal (OPG) study is designed to evaluate clinical outcomes after complete revascularization by PCI and imaging guidance (OCT) in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease including left anterior descending (LAD) presenting with stable angina, or documented silent ischemia, or non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS).
This registry started January 1,2020 to collect patients who recieve coronary OCT imaging in Hainan General Hospital.All enrolled patients will receive 1 year followed-up.
This study is a prospective, multi-center, non-inferior, randomized controlled clinical trial, aims to use optical Coherence tomography to observe the the early- and mid-stage vessel repair and neointimal proliferation. And to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Firehawk™ sirolimus target-eluting coronary stent system with abluminal grooves containing a biodegradable polymer (Firehawk™) comparing the XIENCE everolimus-eluting coronary stent system in the treatment of subjects with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Evidence regarding the role of early (<24 hours) antithrombotics post-revascularization with either intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), or a combination of both remains scarce. In 2018 the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association changed their recommendation, stating that the risk of antithrombotic therapy within the first 24 hours after treatment with IVT (with or without EVT) is uncertain. This was changed after data emerged that early antithrombotics may be safe and may improve outcomes in select patients undergoing EVT. Recently the investigators showed for the first time that significant residual basilar thrombus can exist after EVT despite complete angiographic revascularization using endovascular optical coherence tomography imaging. This residual thrombus could cause ongoing function-limiting strokes with occlusion of vital basilar perforators after EVT. Therefore, the investigators propose a prospective,non-randomized safety study to evaluate optical coherence tomography guided antithrombotic management for patients with confirmed residual thrombus after EVT for basilar occlusion.
