Conventional microscope-integrated intraoperative OCT vs digitally enabled intraoperative OCT in vitreoretinal surgery in the DISCOVER Study
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging May 10, 2020
Figueiredo N, Talcott KE, Srivastava SK, et al. - In this post-hoc analysis of the DISCOVER prospective intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) study, researchers compared conventional microscope-integrated iOCT and digitally enabled microscope-integrated iOCT in vitreoretinal surgery. Surgeon questionnaires were obtained immediately after surgery. In total, 187 patients (91 in the conventional iOCT group and 96 in the digitally enabled iOCT group) were included in the study. No differences were found in surgeon-perceived iOCT utility between the two groups. In both groups, the feasibility and utility of iOCT was identical. The digitally enabled iOCT datastream allowed increased attention to the surgical field during the OCT review.
