ABSTRACT
Background:
Traditional methods for neuroretinal rim width measurement in spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) employs the Bruch's membrane opening (BMO) as the anatomical border of the rim, referenced to a BMO horizontal reference plane, termed as "Bruch's Membrane Opening-Horizontal Rim Width" (BMO-HRW). BMO-HRW is defined as the distance between BMO and internal limiting membrane (ILM) on the horizontal plane. In contrast, the Spectralis OCT (Heidelberg Engineering, Germany) employs a new parameter called "Bruch's Membrane Opening-Minimum Rim Width" (BMO-MRW) with Glaucoma Module Premium Edition (GMPE). GMPE provides a novel objective method of optic nerve head (ONH) analysis using BMO, but the neuroretinal rim assessment is performed from the BMO to the nearest point on the ILM, rather than on the horizontal reference plane. It is the BMO-MRW and is defined as the minimum distance between the BMO and ILM in the ONH.Purpose:
In this video, anatomy of the ONH and GMPE is decoded from a neophyte user's point of view, as to why BMO-MRW is more important than the traditional BMO-HRW for glaucoma evaluation. Synopsis The GMPE concepts are depicted in a novel dynamic (Clinical vs OCT Vs Histology) screenplay, detailing the below focal points with 2D & 3D animations True Margin of ONH, Bruch's Membrane (BM), Histology Vs OCT, BMO, Bruch's Membrane Opening-Minimum Rim Width, Bruch's Membrane Opening-Minimum Rim Width Versus Bruch's Membrane Opening-Horizontal Rim Width, Alpha, Beta, Gamma Zone of ONH in OCT, Anatomic Positioning System, Impact of Fovea Bruch's Membrane Opening Centre Axis. Highlights This video also highlights, how with the advent of Anatomic Positioning System, scans were able to align relative to the individual's Fovea-to-BMO-center (FoBMOC) axis at every follow-up, for accurately detecting changes, as small as 1 micron in BMO-MRW, thus creating a new world in diagnosing glaucoma and detecting glaucomatous progression with precision.
