Eyes were also classified for the presence of key AMD structural markers: pigmentary abnormalities, reticular pseudodrusen and drusen volume. Color fundus and the highest quality en face macular OCT scan available (Cirrus HD-OCT, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) were graded manually for the presence of pigmentary abnormalities. Macular OCT B-scans were graded for presence of reticular pseudodrusen using previously established definitions for OCT grading, that is, reticular lesions defined as five or more hyper-reflective mounds or triangular lesions above the RPE on one or more B-scans (Spectralis OCT).26 (link) Drusen volume within the central 5mm was recorded using advanced RPE analysis software (Cirrus HD-OCT, Carl Zeiss Meditec).
Cirrus hd oct
The Cirrus HD-OCT is a diagnostic imaging device developed by Zeiss. It utilizes optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology to capture high-resolution, cross-sectional images of the eye's internal structures, including the retina, optic nerve, and anterior segment. The device provides detailed visualization of these structures, enabling healthcare professionals to assess and monitor various ocular conditions.

Ganglion Cell-Inner Plexiform Layer Thickness Measurement
The thickness of the GC-IPL was measured using a ganglion cell analysis (GCA) algorithm from the Cirrus HD OCT. The ganglion cell analysis algorithm automatically measured GC-IPL thickness by identifying the outer boundaries of the RNFL and inner plexiform layer of the macula using three-dimensional information from the macular cube. Mean, minimal, and six-sector (i.e., superior, superotemporal, superonasal, inferior, inferotemporal, and inferonasal) GC-IPL thicknesses were measured by the algorithm (Fig.

Severe NPDR Retrospective Study
The inclusion criteria were: 1) presence of type 2 DM with hemoglobin A1c <10% and blood pressure <160/90 mmHg; 2) diagnosis of severe NPDR (at least 20 bleeding points in a single quadrant of the retina, visible vein beads in at least two quadrants, or retinal capillary non-perfusion area exceeding five disc areas8 (link),10 (link)) on the basis of fundus examination with a VISCAM200 Fundus camera (Carl Zeiss GmbH, Oberkochen, Germany), fundus fluorescein angiography with a Heidelberg SPECTRALIS (INNOVA Medical Ophthalmics, North York, Canada), and optical coherence tomography with a CIRRUS HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss GmbH); and 3) no previous fundus treatment such as retinal photocoagulation or intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs or hormones. The exclusion criteria were poor image quality due to media turbidity and/or concurrent non-diabetic retinal vascular disease.
En-face OCT Analysis of BVMD Lesions
performed using the Cirrus HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec). The location of the
fovea was determined using the fovea-finder function of the Cirrus HD-OCT, and
marked on the line scan ophthalmoscope image. Additional high-density volumetric
scans acquired using the Bioptigen spectral domain optical coherence tomography
(Bioptigen Inc, Morrisville, NC) nominally covering 7 × 7 mm (1000
A-scans/B-scan, 250 B-scans) were used to create en-face OCT
sections with custom software (Java, Oracle; Redwood City, CA).26 (link)En-face projections of the ellipsoid zone were generated to
display the extent of BVMD lesions (Figures
and vertical macular B-scans nominally covering 7 mm (1000 A-scans/B-scan;
Bioptigen) were registered and averaged to increase the signal-to-noise ratio.
All OCT images are displayed on logarithmic intensity scale.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
