Retinal Imaging with 3D OCT-2000

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In some animals, the retina was imaged using the scanner 3D OCT-2000 (Topcon, Tokyo, Japan), allowing a complete assessment of the area around the MEA. Each acquisition combined both OCT and fundus imaging. The OCT has an axial resolution of 5 μm. The superluminescent diode light source used is centered at 840 nm with a bandwidth of 50 nm adapted for retinal imaging. The focus was adjusted manually on the retina above the MEA. The analysis was performed using 3D OCT-2000 software (Topcon, Tokyo, Japan) and consisted in the localization of the MEA on the corresponding B-Scan cross-sections. For fundus images, the OCT was combined with a camera (Nikon R_D90, Nikon Imaging Japan Inc.) that uses a white light flash with green filter, allowing color or red-free acquisitions. An additional +20 D magnifying lens was used to enlarge the field of view of the apparatus originally designed for measurements on humans. Note that the use of this lens induced optical artifacts in fundus (Figure 1C top row, halos of light). Finally, the positions of the implant and of the optic disk were back projected onto the visual stimulation screen using an ophthalmoscope coupled with a laser.

Standardized Methodology for Choroidal Thickness Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
OCT scans were conducted in two different cities using the same device (3D OCT-2000® Topcon, Topcon Inc., Tokyo, Japan) and were performed within the same time (08:00 am to 10:00 am) to avoid diurnal changes in choroidal thickness. All measurements were taken from the myoticpupilla and were performed in a semi-illuminated operating room.
During the same visit, a high-resolution (l = 840 nm, 27,000 A-scans/5 mm axial resolution) 6-mm single-line horizontal scanning (centering on the fovea) was conducted using an SD-OCT platform (3D OCT-2000® Topcon, Topcon Inc., Tokyo, Japan) operating in the enhanced depth imaging (EDI) mode. This device also provided automated central macular thickness (CMT) measurements.[Fig. 1].
All OCT measurements were performed by two experienced technicians during a single patient visit. For each eye, CTs were measured three times at a 20-min interval and then the mean values were recorded. The eyes in which there is a difference of >5% among the three measurements were excluded. The choroidal thickness, the extent of which starts from the outer edge of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) to the inner scleral border, was manually measured [Fig. 2]. The measurements were performed by two independent observers (Dr. M.G. and Dr. S.K). Interobserver differences were within 10% of the mean values.

Macular Maps from Optical Coherence Tomography

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Maps of mRNFLT, mGCIPLT and cpRNFLT were derived from macular cube scans of a 6 x 6 mm square area that corresponded to the central 20 degrees. The maps were centered on the fovea and captured with 3D OCT-2000 software (ver. 8.00, Topcon Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). A 10 x 10 grid comprising 100 points was laid over the maps for the analysis. Scans were excluded if the image quality was less than 70 or if segmentation in the images was inaccurate. Every scan was manually checked for segmentation errors and was excluded if errors were found. Images that were not accurately centered on the macula were manually adjusted.

Retinal Layer Segmentation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The CPB was defined in this study as a 1.5 × 9.0 mm rectangular area centered between the optic nerve disc and the macula, aligned perpendicularly to the nerve fibers. At either end of the scan area, a 1.5 × 1.2 mm area in which the retinal layers could not be reliably segmented was discarded. The remaining 1.5 × 6.6 mm area was divided lengthwise into three 1.5 × 2.2 mm sections, representing the upper, middle, and lower CPB. Analysis of the CPB used 3D OCT images, obtained with the 3D OCT-2000 (Topcon Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) device. Each image was constructed from 64 B-scan images (pixel dimensions: 512 × 885, grayscale levels: 256) with depth and lateral resolutions of 6 μm and 20 μm, respectively. Layer segmentation was performed with newly developed software (Topcon). The RNFLT and GCCT of the CPB were measured with automatic analysis software developed by the Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Yamagata University. This software was equipped with a registration system (using a fast registration algorithm for the 3D OCT images based on en-face projection images) to ensure the reliability and reproducibility of the clinical data.

The ethical committee of the hospital approved the study. It was hospital-based descriptive type of observational study which included 50 eyes of fifty patients. All aphakic patients above 12 years who were ready to give consent were included in the study. Exclusion criteria included patients with corneal opacity, retinal disorder, optic atrophy, bleeding disorder, pregnancy, and those who were unwilling to give consent. Preoperative and postoperative visual acuity, slit lamp and fundus examination, applanation tonometry, keratometry, biometry Carl Zeiss Meditec IOL Master, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) (Topcon 3D OCT 2000) were done for extensive evaluation of anterior and posterior segment.
Statistical analysis was done with the help of IBM SPSS 19.0 software. Qualitative data were summarized in the form of proportion. Quantitative data were summarized in the form of mean and standard deviation (SD). The significance of difference in proportion was measured by Chi-square test. The significance of difference in mean was measured by unpaired t-test or ANOVA whichever is appropriate. P < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.

Optimized Retinal Imaging Protocols

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A sdOCT machine (3D OCT-2000, Topcon) and the following three scan protocols were used: 6.0×6.0 mm 3D disc (512 A-scans by 128 B-scans); 6.0×6.0 mm 3D macula (512 A-scans by 128 B-scans); and 3.4 mm dia. circle (average of 50 scans; 1024 A-scans). The circle protocol involved averaging 50 individual scans and thus produced an image of relatively high-quality. (Note that shadowgrams (see inset in panel E of figures 3 (green arrow), 5 and 6) can be examined for artefacts such as excessive eye movements, blinks, etc.)
