Descripción
Sumario:Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SOCT) is an important tool for the diagnosis and management of glaucoma. In an effort to help automate the detection of progressive structural glaucomatous optic nerve damage, Carl Zeiss Meditec has developed Guided Progression Analysis (GPA) software in conjunction with the Cirrus SOCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, Calif., USA). Here, we report a case in which the GPA merged information from 2 different patients, and another case in which data from alternate eyes was compared, making the final analysis invalid.
