The system is an ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography. It provides 3D reconstruction of the perfused microvasculature within the retina and choroid. OCT angiography is a new technique for non-invasive visualization of retinal and choroidal blood vessels in a way that the injection of dye is not required. The high-speed video angiography with the Ultra-Widefield Module provides non-contact peripheral angiography for various types of retinal diseases as well as different neurodegenerations.
