No optimized focusing; no customized segmentation; no tracking method for iris tissue; no fast enough OCT speed… That’s why it is so rarely to see a wide and clear OCTA image for anterior segment from publications. UNTIL, we have TowardPi (Fig1).

A case of ocular trauma, Fig2 is an SLO (Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscopy) image from the same device, similar to an IR camera. An oblique laceration wound can be observed in the cornea.

Fig3 is structural enface display from the scan. The wound looked more conspicuous than in the photo. But no vessel details from this mode.

One switch from structure to blood flow (Fig4). Two branches of vessels can be seen growing towards the center of cornea. This unique pattern associated us the part of “God’s fingers” from <The Creation of Adam> painted by Michelangelo on the Sistine Chapel's ceiling.

All the images above are from one capture of TowardPi SS-OCT system. Both models BMizar and Yalkaid support OCT/OCTA for posterior and anterior. Given the credit of 400KHz speed and special tracking mechanism. Faster, Wider and Sharper, BMizar brings anterior segment OCTA to a brand-new level.

“TowardPi 400KHz high-speed wide-field OCTA imaging provides the possibility to re-recognize the anterior and posterior segment eye diseases. A great contribution from China!”
