Despite the development of NLS in ocular tumors – Biophilia Tracker
Despite being insignificant in tumor pathology, there has been a steady increase in the trend of malignancy in ocular tumors over the past few years. It should be noted that the problem of early diagnosis of ophthalmic pathology has its own characteristics in different countries. In particular, retinoblastoma is the most widespread congenital and acquired neoplastic disease. Among the 4.5-50 million patients registered each year in the United States, there are 20-30 first-diagnosed cases of retinoblastoma. What differentiates these retinoblastoma cases is their aggressive growth rate, and if left undiagnosed, they can lead to metastasis, inefficiency, and death.
The diagnosis of malignant orbital and extraorbital tumors presents certain difficulties, which are related to the complexity of the topographic and anatomical features of the head, tumor type, and growth rate. In the practice of ophthalmology, both the detection of tumors and the assessment of the prevalence of processes in surrounding tissues, that is, changes in the blood vessels supplying tumors, are required. It is well known that many brain disorders, maxillary and ethmoid cell and endocrine disorders are associated with unilateral or bilateral proptosis. In many cases, this syndrome has given rise to hypotheses about the pathology of ocular tumors.
Modern ophthalmoscopy and radiology methods do not always allow to deal with the problem of topographical diagnosis of tumors. In the past few years, there have been several reports on the diagnostic power of CT and MRT for tumors of the eye and orbital cavity. But the large-scale implementation of the aforementioned eye and orbital cavity research methods largely depends on their availability.
In this regard, the use of modern nonlinear diagnostic (NLS) techniques to detect, differentiate and correct diagnosis of ocular and extraorbital tumors has received close attention. The use of nonlinear fundus imaging in clinical practice reflects virtually all stages of tool engineering development and technological improvement in this area. There are no detailed studies on the diagnostic power of NLS angiography in the case of ocular organ tumors.
In the case of a hypothetical ocular tumor, the ophthalmologist must not only detect its organ affiliation, but also perform a reasonable assessment of the blood circulation. In this regard, the 3D NLS imaging Biophilia Tracker offers a great opportunity for oncology ophthalmology. The purpose of the given report is to communicate experience with the clinical application of 3D NLS imaging in the comprehensive assessment of tumors of the eye and orbital cavity.
