Intraoperative OCT enhances safety, accuracy of peeling surgery
VIENNA — Intraoperative OCT has the potential to make peeling surgery easier and safer, offering real-time visualization of surgical maneuvers and iatrogenic effects of peeling-associated traction, according to one surgeon. In a study set up by the group of Oliver Findl, MD, at Hanusch Hospital in Vienna, the Rescan 700 OCT system (Carl Zeiss Meditec) was used during 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peeling in 20 patients.
