Optical Coherence Tomography for the Neurologist.
Seminars in Neurology 2015 October
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a relatively new technology that is now routinely and very widely used by ophthalmologists for structural documentation of the optic nerve and retina. In neuro-ophthalmology and neurology, the value of OCT is ever expanding; its role in an increasing number of conditions is being reported in parallel with the advances of the technology. Currently, as a clinical tool, OCT is particularly useful for the structural measurement of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, optic nerve head volumetric analysis, and macular anatomy. Optic neuropathies of varied etiology (particularly from multiple sclerosis) may be the most common clinical indications for neurologists to obtain OCT imaging. Documentation and follow-up of disc edema of varied etiology (papilledema and idiopathic intracranial hypertension), discriminating true disc swelling from pseudopapilledema, and differentiating optic neuropathy from maculopathy are some other examples from clinical practice.
