A new peer-reviewed review article has been published in Diagnostics (MDPI), authored by researchers from the Medical University of Silesia: Aleksandra Prus-Ludwig, Adam Wylęgała, Edward Wylęgała, Magdalena Kijonka, and Bogumił Wowra.
The publication, titled “Optical Coherence Tomography Biomarkers Predicting Progression to Atrophy in Non-Exudative Age-Related Macular Degeneration”, provides a comprehensive overview of OCT-based biomarkers associated with progression to geographic atrophy (GA) in dry AMD — one of the leading causes of irreversible vision loss worldwide.
All 11 clinical OCT images included in the publication were captured using REVO HR OCT, a high-resolution optical coherence tomography device developed by OPTOPOL Technology. The images document key retinal biomarkers including drusen subtypes, subretinal deposits, intraretinal hyperreflective foci, and RPE complex abnormalities.
