This superbly practical book has been written by expert authors and is an ideal resource for clinicians seeking practical "how-to" information on OCT. OCT is a relatively new imaging technique that is becoming increasingly popular among ophthalmologists in both private and academic settings. Imaging has been a slow moving area in ophthalmology for some time, but now OCT is providing another, more detailed source of demonstrable change in the eye, in diagnostic, therapeutic or post-surgical setting. OCT and ultrasound both measure advancing disease states and post-surgical healing. The difference is that OCT shows more subtle changes, particularly post-surgically.
