BALTIMORE At the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology meeting, Zeiss announced new Plex Elite 9000 swept-source OCT and OCT angiography technology, developed in collaboration with the Advanced Retina Imaging Network, according to a press release from the company.

“Zeiss’ swept-source OCT and OCT angiography platform is truly a remarkable breakthrough in our quest to achieve better, wider, deeper and faster imaging of the retina and choroid. This technology opens up a new world of structural and microvascular clarity,” Philip J. Rosenfeld, MD, PhD, chairman of the ARI Network, said in the release. “This collaboration between the retina experts in the ARI Network and the engineers and scientists at Zeiss is vital to the advancement of retinal and choroidal imaging and scientific discovery.”

Zeiss will be showing swept-source OCT with 200 kHz technology, anterior segment OCT angiography, as well as new software for advanced vascular assessment of diabetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusion, according to the release. The swept-source technology can rapidly acquire an ultra-wide OCT angiography montage with the ability to examine the retinal vasculature with up to a 70° field of view.
