Multimodal Ophthalmological Imaging: From the Eye to the Brain
This training will introduce you to the various modalities for exploring ophthalmological pathologies, enabling a precise analysis of the entire visual pathways from the cornea to the occipital cortex. We will cover optical imaging techniques, such as OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) or confocal microscopy, ultrasound imaging techniques including Doppler ultrasound. Lastly, we will discuss MRI with dedicated protocols for imaging the optic nerve and the brain.
The presentation will focus on the value of combining these multimodal examinations to achieve a high-precision diagnosis, using image fusion techniques that leverage the strengths of each technique while minimizing their weaknesses.
