Innovative wide-field swept source OCT
Expanding its eye care portfolio, Canon Medical Systems Europe introduces the industry’s first wide-field swept source optical coherence tomography (OCT) capable of capturing high-resolution images of up to 23 mm in a single scan, the Xephilio OCT-S1. Canon’s deep scanning swept source technology allows better penetration of cataracts, hemorrhages, blood vessels and sclera and at the same time optimizes capture of retinal and choroidal data – all in a single shot. With a single capture, the swept source Xephilio OCT-S1 shows a large wide-field OCT scan area as wide as 23 x 20 mm, which can be very beneficial for retina thickness observation of retinal detachment or retinitis pigmentosa. Xephilio OCT-S1 enables superior penetration of dense objects and provides outstanding tomographic images. In addition, Intelligent Denoise – the system’s deep learning AI technology – offers a new quality of OCTA images in a single scan with greatly reduced noise, increased detail and improved visibility within just seconds. Xephilio OCT-S1 allows visualizing details of the retinal vitreous down to the choroid and also to assess highly curved myopic eyes all in one single OCT capture. The integration of Canon’s eye care portfolio into the medical imaging business enables Canon Medical Systems Europe to significantly strengthen Canon’s position in the eye care market, as well as to advance the application of multimodality imaging techniques in clinical practice and research studies.
