  • Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography

    A Clinically-Oriented Atlas
    • 1st Edition
    • Mehmet Baykara + 2 more
    • English
    Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography: A Clinically-Oriented Atlas introduces a wide range of clinical applications of anterior segment OCT for the diagnosis, follow up, and assessment of medical and surgical treatments and critical interventions. Though there is research on imaging the anterior segment of the eye using OCT, there have not been attempts to compile the implications of these findings into a single source. Rather, this book avoids focusing on generic descriptions of the technology, providing a unique perspective on the clinical aspects of OCT. This atlas will translate research into practice in a way that has never been achieved before.For those wishing to apply the theoretical aspects of OCT to their daily practice, this book provides a unique how-to guide that has thus far been missing from literature. While other books offer significant background on OCT, only this one will serve as a go-to reference for treatment of real patients.
