An imaging technique used to acquire in situ retinal imaging for diagnosis of ocular diseases.
Recent developments have revealed a highly reflective line, identified as the photoreceptor inner and outer segment (IS/OS); crucial for the diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa.
The line is an indicator of a normal alignment of the outer segment's membranous discs in the photoreceptor.
The OCT should therefore display a continuous IS/OS line. This line serves as an indicator of good vision, as well as recovery from an invasive, intraocular surgery.
