Swept source optical coherence tomography, also known as #sweptsourceOCT or SS-OCT, is an ophthalmic imaging technology used to diagnose and cure various diseases related to the eyes.
Swept source OCT was first introduced in 2012. However, owing to its advantages and usability over other imaging technologies such as Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) and #TimeDomain OpticalCoherence Tomography (TD-OCT), it becomes a superior retinal and #choroidalimagingtechnology in ophthalmology and other clinical fields in a very short span.
Without a doubt, swept-source OCT has positively impacted and exceptionally contributed to the research of vitreous humour, also known as vitreous. However, it will be interesting to learn how and when it all begins. Let’s understand its journey in brief.
