Biophilia Tracker X4 MAX is becoming a leader in orbital cellulitis diagnosis

Orbital cellulitis is a diffuse progressive acute inflammatory process with orbital tissue infiltration and purulent melting. The disease can occur at any age, but is more common in children aged 4-5 and young adults of working age. Orbital cellulitis in children is preceded by acute respiratory diseases, in adults - chronic and acute inflammation of trauma, airways, oral cavity, sepsis.


The development of acute orbital inflammation and its complications is provided by the anatomical and topographical features of the orbit, such as the adjacent cranial cavity and sinuses, the arterial connection to the external and internal carotid arterial systems, and the absence of valves in the orbital veins. Orbital cellulitis can lead to intracranial complications that endanger not only the eye but the life of the patient. All these factors set certain requirements for modern diagnostics in order to select appropriate treatments. The efficiency of treatment depends on adequate assessment of the pathological process, specifying its localization, detecting the presence of necrotic decay. It would not be possible to solve this problem without applying modern visual diagnostic methods. Together with traditional investigative methods (analysis of memory data, sequence of clinical symptoms, laboratory and functional tests), ultrasound, computed tomography and more recently NLS diagnostic methods allow diagnosis at an early stage, thus ensuring the selection of appropriate treatment.


In recent years, many new technologies have been developed and then introduced into practical ophthalmology. The Biophilia Tracker X4 MAX is becoming a leader in screening diagnostics among various visualization methods thanks to many aspects (simplicity, usability, informativeness, safety, absence of ionizing radiation and affordability). Ultramicroscopic scanning revealed that the NLS image of orbital cellulitis showed asymmetry and dilation of the retrobulbar space, with changes in structure and color rendering. However, many important aspects of this question remain unresolved: the possibility of three-dimensional NLS studies, ultramicroscanning combined with orbital spectral entropy analysis (SEA) in the diagnosis of the disease has not been studied; there is a lack of information on the combined NLS imaging in the evaluation of orbital cellulitis clinical Application information for process and treatment efficiency. Therefore, research on this issue must be considered essential.
