What is optical coherence tomography?
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a painless, non-invasive imaging method (similar to an ultrasound) used to observe and gather detailed images of the retina. This imaging is important for detecting and monitoring changes in the retina and optic nerve.
OCT can help detect a number of retinal diseases, such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, Alport syndrome and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Additionally, OCT can be used to monitor some neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis (MS).
OCT is an important component in both diagnosing and determining the best treatment for these among other conditions.
