For clinicians familiar with the Maestro2 OCT device from Topcon, the company recently announced an exciting upgrade: now, the color fundus camera is also available with OCT angiography (OCT-A), an imaging modality increasingly being employed in eye care to help identify and assess various vascular and retinal conditions.

The device, featuring single-touch automated image capture, offers 3×3, 4.5×4.5 and 6x6mm OCT-A scans to evaluate macular disorders such as age-related macular degeneration, Topcon says. Additionally, a 12x9mm 3D widefield scan can be used to analyze more peripheral areas of the eye affected by conditions like diabetic retinopathy and vein and artery occlusions.

Other features now integrated into the Maestro2 with OCT-A system include one the company calls “pinpoint registration,” which enables comparison of subclinical OCT and OCT-A findings with related areas on a color fundus photograph, as well as an eye-tracking feature that helps to improve image quality and reduce motion artifacts. The combined system also offers en face OCT-A imaging and Angio B color-coding to help discern normal and abnormal blood flow in the retina and choroid. 

The Maestro2 OCT can be purchased with or without OCT-A. For doctors who already own a Maestro2 device, Topcon says most will have the option to purchase an OCT-A upgrade.
