Xephilio OCT-A1 offers superb image quality. The 3 micron optical resolution ( 1.6 μm digital) enables excellent differentiation of structures and individual layers of the retina.
After clicking with the mouse on just roughly the center of the pupil, the OCT-A1 's automated anterior tracking will take over and will automatically detect and maintain the exact center, even when the patient is making eye movements or blinking.
A second mouse click will initiate the scanning and the device will automatically optimize the focus and coherence gate for the highest signal quality and the best possible examination results. After confirmation of the pre-view scan images, the third click will start the actual acquisition which only takes seconds.
The OCT-A1 is equipped with a Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope. This SLO system allows for real-time retinal tracking. By detecting and compensating movements, the impact of small involuntary movements that could cause motion artefacts is greatly reduced and image quality is greatly improved.
With Xephilio OCT-A1, up to 200 scans can be averaged to achieve an image resolution that allows you to see in detail both the layer structure as well as the vitreous pleated structure. The device combines high resolution image with a particularly wide scan width of up to 13 mm!
For optimal imaging, the system offers special scan modes for both vitreous and choroid imaging.
Canon’s Xephilio OCT-A1 can automatically detect and distinguish 10 layers of the retina – including Bruch’s membrane (BM).
With the optional Anterior Segment Adapter ASA-1, the 3 micron resolution of Xephilio OCT-A1 also gives you the ability to image the anterior segment of the eye in great resolution. The width of Anterior scans can be 6 or 9 mm.
With the optional Angio Expert software module, the OCT-A1 can provide you with amazing OCTA images, showing the great optical qualities of the device.
The unique optical characterics of the OCT-A1 also provide a very strong 3D visualization. The 3D images can support the clinical diagnosis and could be used for patient education as well.
The SLO also enables accurate follow-up examinations by automatically adjusting to the same scan position as used in the previous exam. The SLO image of the center part of the retina is compared with the previous study: like a digital finger print for reliable comparison, the software automatically selects identical scan parameters.
