Concomitant therapy of epiretinal radiation, bevacizumab for neovascular AMD promising
November 12th 2007Concomitant delivery of focal radiotherapy and bevacizumab (Avastin, Genentech) showed promise in a small multicenter feasibility study of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
Clinical results of retina regeneration therapy announced
November 11th 2007The initial clinical results were announced of a continuous study for non-thermal Retina Regeneration Therapy (Ellex 2RT, Ellex Medical Lasers Ltd.). The results showed the therapy's potential to make improvements in and stabilize visual acuity, as well as reduce retinal edema in patients with diabetic maculopathy and macular edema without causing any damage to the photoreceptors.
Advances in spectral domain 3-D high-resolution OCT
November 9th 2007Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), the latest generation of the technology, is a breakthrough because it has dramatically cut the time required to obtain images by eliminating the moving mirror that was a component of standard OCT.
