How can an ophthalmologist use AI for OCT scan analysis?

My name is Maria Znamenska. I am an ophthalmologist with a PhD in ophthalmology and the Medical Director of Altris AI. I have been practicing and teaching OCT for more than 16 years. I want to show you how Artificial Intelligence can be used for OCT analysis with real OCT scans with AMD (drusen), DR, and GA retina pathologies.

OCT is an indispensable tool for any modern ophthalmology specialist. AI-powered OCT workflow provides a second opinion on complex OCT scans, allows the detection of early or minor biomarkers and pathologies, and assists in tracking the progression of biomarkers quantitatively, making the work of ophthalmologists faster and more accurate.

AI for OCT Workflow for ophthalmologists

  • Working with ocular pathologies detected by Altris AI

    When you come across a pathological scan that you want to explore in detail, you go to the AI Pathologies Detection Module. Inside this module, AI analyzes the scan for the presence of 70+ biomarkers and retina pathologies.The system highlights each of them in color.

  • Working with ocular pathologies with precise biomarkers measurement

    Each biomarker can be measured in terms of segmentation volume and area automatically with excellent precision.

  • Pathology progression analysis through Altris AI

    Progression analysis allows adding examinations from different visits in historical order and seeing the transformation of biomarkers and retina pathologies.

  • Early glaucoma risk assessment with Altris AI

    Early glaucoma risk assessment is based on the analysis of GCC asymmetry and informs about high risk of early glaucoma.

  • Customizable OCT reports
    Examination results can be saved or printed as a customizable report, detailing basic information, severity detection, layer segmentation, specific pathologies,making OCT workflow effective.

With Altris AI the work of ophthalmologist becomes much more accurate and effective: AI accelerates and automates OCT screening so that ophthalmologists only work with pathological scans. More than that, Altris AI supports with diagnostic decision -making ensuring that minor/early/rare pathologies, including early glaucoma are not missed. Progression analysis module ensures that the ophthalmologist is tracing the progression of biomarkers quantitatively.
Early detection of glaucoma is challenging: the signs can be subtle, making them difficult to detect. Ganglion Cell Complex asymmetry analysis catergorises the risk of developing glaucoma. Glaucoma Early Risk Assessment Module can help decrease the number of false positive referrals and increase the standard of care by supporting the early diagnosis therefore, timely treatment will improve the patient's prognosis.

AI for OCT scan analysis offers every ophthalmologist a chance to unleash the full potential of this diagnostic tool.

OCT is the most effective method of retina diagnosis yet it requires years of learning and practice to truly master it. Altris AI ( AI for OCT) analysis becomes a solid and reliable diagnostic decision-making support tool for optometrists and dispensing opticians.

 

  • Altris AI detects 70+ pathologies and biomarkers
  • Altris AI assesses early risk of glaucoma
  • Altris AI enables quantitative progression analysis of biomarkers
  • Altris AI provides the chance to build customisable reports
While AI has the potential to assist ophthalmologists in various tasks, such as tracking pathology progression, early Glaucoma assessment risk measuring, and excluding nonpathological scans, it will never replace them. Ophthalmology requires a combination of deep medical expertise, patient interaction, and nuanced decision-making that’s challenging for AI to replicate entirely.
