(Medical-NewsWire.com, August 12, 2016 ) Fundus photography and fluorescein angiography have long served to aid ophthalmologists in evaluation, management and documentation of various eye related disorders but limits its ability to deliver significant imaging results. Majority of the eye related disorders such as diabetic retinopathy, hypersensitive retinopathy and ocular ischemic syndrome affects the entire retina. In such cases, use of wide field imaging systems has evolved as a remarkable technology expanding its ability to image the entire retina gaining a new understanding of the role of such technologies in the management of various kinds of retinal disorders. Typical fundus camera captures 30 to 50 degree views of retina and optic nerve compared to wide field imaging system that can deliver 100-200 degrees to the periphery or beyond equator revealing pathologies such as ischemia or neurovascular proliferation that cannot be identified using standard techniques such as angiography. Wide field imaging systems demonstrates its extended applications in retinopathy pathologies particularly of ascular nature including diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, retinal vasculitis, choroidial masses and retinopathy of prematurity.
For instance, Optos 200Tx, manufactured by Dunfermline, is an ultra-wide field imaging system imaging system, which produces a 200 degrees view of the retina. The system utilizes a combined scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) with mirror to obtain images of the retinal periphery eliminating the need for bright illumination lighting or a contact lens, and in some patients, pupillary dilation. Many others companies such as Visunex Medical Systems is engaged in developing the best wide field systems for preserving healthy vision for all newborn babies across the world. Approximately four millions children’s are born in the U.S. each year. Newborn vision screening is clinically important in evaluating retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and retinoblastoma (RB) which are life-threatening and can lead to newborn vision loss.
Wide Field Imaging Systems Market: Drivers and Restraints
Advances in ophthalmology and growing demand for more efficient and revolutionary imaging techniques to detect and monitor clinically relevant peripheral changes such as micro-aneurysm, neovascularization and perivascular leakage are some of the factors expected to drive the growth of global Wide Field Imaging Systems Market. Increasing prevalence of several eye related disorders such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, pediatric retinal diseases, hemoglobinopathy and uveitis are also contributing towards increasing demand for efficient imaging techniques among ophthalmologists. High cost of the equipment and lack of awareness among patients as well as clinicians regarding the use of the system is expected to hamper the overall market growth of wide field view system in the near future.
