Description
The Heidelberg OCT II Optical Coherence Tomography, also known as the Spectralis OCT2, is a cutting-edge spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) system developed by Heidelberg Engineering. Designed for high-speed image acquisition and precise anatomical visualization, this device is a benchmark in retinal diagnostics and follow-up care.
The Heidelberg OCT II is the next generation OCT technology for the SPECTRALIS platform, offering enhanced image quality from vitreous to choroid. With a fast scanning speed of 85,000 Hz, it improves clinical workflow and increases patient comfort by shortening examination times.
The Heidelberg OCT II is the ideal basis for advanced imaging modalities such as OCT angiography and advanced glaucoma diagnostics. Since it can be added to any existing upgradeable SPECTRALIS system, the OCT2 Module is a sound investment for the future.
Heidelberg OCT II Features
- OCT2 Module: Provides high-speed scanning at up to 85,000 A-scans per second, delivering sharper and more detailed images with minimal motion artifacts.
- TruTrack™ Active Eye Tracking: Ensures image stability and reproducibility by compensating for eye movement during scanning, ideal for follow-up comparisons.
- AutoRescan™: Automatically aligns follow-up scans with baseline images for accurate progression analysis.
- Multi-Modality Platform: Integrates OCT, BluePeak™ autofluorescence, infrared, and fluorescein angiography imaging—all in one system.
- High-Resolution Imaging: Produces detailed cross-sectional images of the retina, macula, and optic nerve head, supporting early diagnosis and management of glaucoma, AMD, and diabetic retinopathy.
- Heidelberg App Suite: Offers advanced analysis tools for layer segmentation, retinal thickness mapping, and comparison to normative databases.
Heidelberg OCT II Applications
- Retinal disease diagnostics (e.g., AMD, diabetic macular edema)
