Combined Optical Coherence Tomography and Ultrasound assisted analysis for retinal detachment in morning glory syndrome

Abstract

Optical imaging for biological tissue is of great interest in the biomedical field because of its many qualities. the use of the waves between the visible and the infrared makes the optical imaging noninvasive and non-destructive. The diffusion of a large part of the light propagating in such objects represents a huge handicap since a long time. The recent application of low coherence interferometry has allowed the photons of backscattered light to be selectively collected and amplified, giving rise to the technique of optical coherence tomography (OCT). this article shows the combinatorial role of OCT and ocular ultrasound in the diagnosis of morning glory syndrome disease. In Ophthalmology, follow-up after surgery is very important especially for people who expect a retinal discharge which is impossible with the OCT, so we will quote in this paper the role of ultrasound in surgery follow-up postoperative. in this context we talk about the importance of ocular ultrasound in ophthalmology and Comparing this one with the OCT technique.
