| | Product Description | |
| The Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) is a proven, essential tool for detecting and managing glaucoma, especially for assisting in the identification of pre-perimetric disease and tracking progression. The Ancillary Study to the Ocular Hypertension Treatment Study (OHTS) demonstrated that optic disc analysis detected glaucoma conversion in 55% of cases, before any detectable loss of visual function. The HRT has proved to be a robust predictor of glaucoma. OHTS also concluded that the HRT recognized temporal superior defects which later developed into confirmed glaucoma in 40% of cases - looking only at baseline measurements - then confirmed the diagnosis with an average of 5 years of follow-up. Equally impressive was that 93% of all HRT cases flagged as within normal limits at baseline remained within normal limits during the same time period.
HRT combines the advantage of speed with the power of Heidelberg Engineering’s TruTrack™ image alignment software to deliver unmatched performance and clinical utility. TruTrack™ works in the background, tracking over 500 points on each image, enabling follow-up scans to be precisely aligned to baseline for detecting small changes reliably. | | Go to Vendor Product Page | | Go to Vendor Website | |
