BETTER PATIENT ACCESS
The RetCam Shuttle delivers most of the imaging capabilities of RetCam3 in a compact, more easily transportable package.
Maneuverable in constrained areas - NICU, PICU, and physician's office/clinic
Allows timely transmission of patient images for remote review, across networks and the internet
Transportable between hospitals and clinics
Provides instant image analysis and comparison of time-sensitive images and data
THERE IS A BETTER WAY TO LOOK AT PEDIATRIC RETINAL DISEASE
The BIO Technique vs. RetCam3 Digital Imaging
For years, BIO was the primary method for diagnosing and monitoring ROP. However, clinical studies have repeatedly demonstrated that the subjectivity and inaccuracies of hand-drawn BIO sketches create significant variability in ROP diagnoses and documentation1-5.
The Proven Variability Of Binocular Indirect Ophthalmoscopy (BIO)
A Comparative Study of Newborn Eye Examinations
| Newborn Eye Exams without RetCam3 | 20 of 202 subjects (10%) showed abnormal findings |
| Newborn Eye Exams with RetCam3 Images | 70 of the same 202 subjects (35%) showed abnormal findings |
| Difference | 50 of 202 patients (25%) with abnormal findings were missed when RetCam3 images were not used |
The Proven Accuracy of RetCam Imaging
Studies have proven that RetCam's objective, high-resolution imagery, uniform data, and many options provide definitive, superior diagnosis and management of ROP, compared to outdated BIO methods1-5. No wonder RetCam3 has become a new gold standard of care for ROP1.
RetCam Sensitivity and Specificity
A NEW SPECTRUM OF INSIGHT, REVEALING ROP ANOMALIES.
Fluorescein Angiography (FA)
The extreme contrast abilities of FA provide sharp visualization of vascular anomalies that might otherwise go unseen. Its results document and support the diagnosis of many ophthalmic diseases and conditions, and serve as a valuable surgical planning tool.
FA vs. Color Imaging
The border of the vascular area is clear in the FA image, while in the color photograph, it is hidden within the treated area.
The blue arrows point out areas where FA provides visualization of the vessels of an ROP patient that are not obvious in the color photograph.
THE RIGHT VIEW. RIGHT WHERE YOU NEED IT.
RetCam3 Lens Options
