Stratus Versus Cirrus OCT in AMD

• Conditions: Age-Related Macular Degeneration; Choroidal Neovascularization

• Registration Number: NCT00568191
• Lead Sponsor: The Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Retinology and Biomicroscopic Laser Surgery

Brief Summary

The Cirrus OCT provides due to the spectral domain technology a 2-fold resolution than Stratus OCT generated in a comparable amount of time. Due to this higher resolution the retinal surface and the retinal pigment epithelium can be identified more clearly, a significantly reduced number of algorithm failures is expected
