Intraoperative optical coherence tomography: past, present, and future
Open accessAbstract
To provide an overview of the current state of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT). Literature review of studies pertaining to intraoperative OCT examining both the technology aspects of the imaging platform and the current evidence for patient care. Over the last several years, there have been significant advances in integrative technology for intraoperative OCT. This has resulted in the development of multiple microscope-integrated systems and a rapidly expanding field of image-guided surgical care. Multiple studies have demonstrated the potential role for intraoperative OCT in facilitating surgeon understanding of the surgical environment, tissue configuration, and overall changes to anatomy. In fact, the PIONEER and DISCOVER studies, both demonstrated a potential significant percentage of cases that intraoperative OCT alters surgical decision-making in both anterior and posterior segment surgery. Current areas of exploration and development include OCT-compatible instrumentation, automated tracking, intraoperative OCT software platforms, and surgeon feedback/visualization platforms. Intraoperative OCT is an emerging technology that holds promise for enhancing the surgical care of both anterior segment and posterior segment conditions. Hurdles remain for adoption and widespread utilization, including cost, optimized feedback platforms, and more definitive value for individualized surgical care with image guidance.

Despite intraoperative OCT, practical limitations include restricted OCT fields, shadowing of the operative site by intravitreal instruments, and inability for surgeons to operate and observe the iOCT image in real time.
“there are still practical limitations in iOCT systems including restricted OCT fields, shadowing of the operative site by intravitreal instruments and the inability for surgeons to operate and observe the iOCT image in real time.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
