Retinal Vascular Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography for Noninvasive Retinal Vascular Imaging
This is a clinical pilot study to assess the feasibility of using a swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) system to perform noninvasive imaging of the retinal vasculature in patients with existing microvascular disease.
This project is being conducted under an abbreviated IDE. Subjects with existing retinal
microvascular disease will be recruited from among the patients of the Duke Eye Center
and/or its associated satellite clinics. Following informed consent, subjects undergo
imaging, per established standard operating procedure, at the Duke University Medical
Center/Duke Center or at one of the Duke Eye Center satellite clinics. Pharmacologic
dilation of eyes will not be necessary for completion of imaging and will not be used for
the purposes of this study. The resulting images will not be used in the clinical care of
any of the subjects recruited for this project.
Subjects will be identified from patients presenting for ophthalmologic consultation at the
Duke Eye Center and/or its satellite clinic locations.
