Abstract

Purpose of review: To discuss recent studies of imaging modalities for ocular surface pathologies.

Recent findings: Novel micro-ocular coherence tomography technology can produce high-resolution images of corneal cellular and nervous structures. Ocular coherence tomography angiography can aid in detecting early stage limbal stem cell deficiency. Several studies used in vivo confocal microscopy to evaluate corneal nerve metrics and morphology.

Summary: The applications of anterior segment optical coherence tomography, anterior segment optical coherence tomography angiography, ultrasound biomicroscopy, and in vivo confocal microscopy are useful technologies for imaging the ocular surface. Several studies have used artificial intelligence in combination with imaging technologies to create reliable and effective systems to detect and visualize ocular surface pathologies. AS OCT continues to be a key imaging tool and future development of μOCT technology may further enhance its utility.

眼表病变的最新成像模式。

综述目的：讨论有关眼表病变成像模式的最新研究：新型微型眼相干断层扫描技术可生成角膜细胞和神经结构的高分辨率图像。眼相干断层血管造影术有助于检测早期角膜缘干细胞缺乏症。几项研究利用体内共聚焦显微镜评估角膜神经指标和形态。摘要：眼前节光学相干断层扫描、眼前节光学相干断层血管造影、超声生物显微镜和体内共聚焦显微镜的应用是眼表成像的有用技术。有几项研究将人工智能与成像技术相结合，创建了可靠有效的系统来检测和观察眼表病变。AS OCT 仍是一种重要的成像工具，μOCT 技术的未来发展可能会进一步提高其实用性。

期刊介绍： This journal aims to offer expert review articles on the most significant recent developments in the field of ophthalmology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions, the journal intends to serve those who diagnose, treat, manage, and prevent ocular conditions and diseases. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the field. Section Editors select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An Editorial Board of more than 20 internationally diverse members reviews the annual table of contents, ensures that topics include emerging research, and suggests topics of special importance to their country/region. Topics covered may include age-related macular degeneration; diabetic retinopathy; dry eye syndrome; glaucoma; pediatric ophthalmology; ocular infections; refractive surgery; and stem cell therapy.
