Description |
The Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph II (HRT) measures the birefrigence of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL). The computer model provides indirect measurements of optic disc area, rim area, rim volume, height variation contour, mean RNFL thickness, RNFL cross sectional area, reference height contour, rim and total nerve fiber layer thickness that are applicable to analysis of optic nerve swelling and atrophy seen in neuro-ophthalmology patients. Other parameters that target glaucoma cup-to-disc analysis are also provided. |
