Case 5: Optovue iVue OCT Image OD X-Linked Retinoschisis An iVue SD OCT through the fovea of a patient with a clinical diagnosis of X-Linked Retinoschisis with genetic confirmation. Note the attenuation of the macula, several retinal splits and a poorly visualized PIL in the macula area. The schisis here is
Histological Section as Compared to the OCT Image Although the Photoreceptor Integrity Line, or the PIL (defined as the junction between the inner and outer segments) is barely visible in most histological sections, it is highly prominent in normal SD OCTs. The PIL, as shown above, should be continuous throughout the entire scan
Case 4: Optovue iVue OCT Images Comparison OS.
Case 4: Optovue iVue OCT Image OS A section through the superior tip of the lesion is essentially normal.
Case 4: Optovue iVue OCT Image OS The PIL is also missing in the superior horizontal section through the lesion.
Case 4: Optovue iVue OCT Image OS A section through the hyperpigmented central zone of the lesion results in partial shadowing of underlying structures.
Case 4: Optovue iVue OCT Image OS iVue SD OCT demonstrates a subretinal, slightly elevated lesion with overlying loss of the PIL. Of interest, there is also loss of the PIL in a zone below the center of the lesion that appears normal with ophthalmoscopy and fundus photography.
Optovue iVue Image Gallery The recently released iVue is currently the least expensive SD OCT available, is easy to operate and yields high resolution images. The added attraction of the iVue is the ability to remove the scan head from its base so that images can be obtained in a group
Case 3: Optovue iVue Gray Scale OCT Image OS A normal PIL is a robust OCT finding that persists at low sensitivity levels as shown.
Case 3: Optovue iVue Gray Scale OCT Image OS A Normal BUT Rare OCT Image Patient Information • African American • Female • DOB: 5/26/2008 This high resolution SD OCT that we obtained with an iVue in a difficult 2 year-old demonstrates that such scans are possible in infants and toddlers. The history
