Summary

Panoramic Ophthalmoscopy: Optomapreg; Images and Interpretationcomprehensively covers the state-of-the-art technology and the high-resolution digital images taken with the Panoramic200 Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope. The optomapreg; Retinal Exam images provide ophthalmologists and optometrists with an extended view and photo-documentation of almost the entire retina. InsidePanoramic Ophthalmoscopy, Jerome Sherman, Gulshan Karamchandani, William Jones, Sanjeev Nath, and Lawrence A. Yannuzzi document and expertly explain all there is to know about this remarkable new technology. Over 500 images highlight the text, many of which have never been seen before, and provide detailed visual references for numerous eye disorders. This colorful atlas is the ideal resource for interpreting these images and diagnosing serious eye conditions that may have otherwise gone undetected. Panoramic Ophthalmoscopycontains an introductory chapter that highlights and contrasts panoramic ophthalmoscopy and optomapreg; images to all the traditional methods of fundus viewing. Inside you will find over 100 exemplary case presentations covering common and uncommon topics such as normal fundus, retinal tears, Coatrs"s disease, and diabetic retinopathy. Also included are cases of retinal and choroidal diseases and how they were diagnosed and managed using this technology. In the last chapter, the authors peer into the next frontier of imaging by introducing Optos fluorescein angiography and its myriad potential contributions to patient care, research, and clinical teaching. Each case presentation includes: bull; History and chief compliant bull; Clinical findings bull; optomapreg; images bull; Differential diagnosis bull; Disposition and follow-up Cases are arranged into 11 chapters covering: bull; Optic Disc bull; Macula bull; Vascular bull; Inflammatory bull; Mass Lesions bull; Retinal Degenerations bull; Peripheral Lesions With expert descriptions and hundreds of never before seen images, the all encompassingPanoramic Ophthalmoscopy: Optomapreg; Images and Interpretationis the perfect resource for optometrists, ophthalmologists, ophthalmic technicians, residents, and students who would like to learn more about and would like to benefit from this revolutionary technology.

His research interests include retina, glaucoma, and the nonglaucomatous optic neuropathies, including Lebers Hereditary Optic Neuropathy. His publications include over 625 clinical articles, research manuscripts, book chapters, two CDs, and he has recently completed two books and is working on two others. He is a founding member of the International Foundation for Optic Nerve Disease (IFOND) and the Optometric Retina Society (ORS). Fortunately, he still enjoys travel and has presented over 100 lectures last year in myriad states and countries. Ms. Gulshan Karamachandani graduated magna cum laude from North Carolina State University, where she majored in Biology with a concentration in nutrition. Her experiences as a technician at Cary Optometric Center (NC) and the Eye Institute and Laser Center (NY), along with her research at SUNY College of Optometry, influenced her decision to pursue a career in optometry. Currently, she is enrolled at Pennsylvania College of Optometry, class of 2010. William L. Jones, OD, FAAO graduated from the University of Houston College of Optometry. Currently, he is the President of the Optometric Retina Society. He has held numerous previous titles including: Adjunct Professor (University of Houston College of Optometry), Adjunct Associate Professor (Southern California College of Optometry and Pacific University College of Optometry), and Assistant Clinical Professor (University of California School of Optometry). Currently, he is in private practice—New Mexico Eyecare—in Albuquerque, NM. He has written over 50 papers and articles on retinal and other eye diseases, given over 200 lectures, written chapters for optometry textbooks, and written a book in its third edition on the peripheral retina. He is also a consultant to Optos, plc. Sanjeev Nath, MD is surgeon director of the Eye Institute and Laser Center in New York City. Continuing in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, he founded this center with state-of-the-art ophthalmic technology almost a quarter century ago. The center has always been at the forefront in utilizing the most modern diagnostic and therapeutic technologies for delivering high-tech clinical patient care. He performs virtually all types of ophthalmic laser and surgical procedures of the anterior and posterior segments of the eye in addition to numerous cosmetic procedures. He has been instrumental in teaching many clinicians the use of laser technology as well as disseminating the newest therapies in underprivileged countries. His interests span multiple aspects of ophthalmology with a special emphasis on glaucoma, including diagnosis of complex coexisting intraocular disorders, as well as therapeutic and surgical management using the newest technologies. During the last 25 years, he has had multiple presentations in clinical research to his credit. He is an attending surgeon at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary. Lawrence Yannuzzi, MD is a graduate of Harvard College and Boston University Medical School, where he was honored as a distinguished alumnus. He is a professor of clinical ophthalmology at Columbia University Medical School; vice-chairman and director of The Retinal Research Center of the Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat Hospital; and founder and president of The Macula Foundation, Inc. He is a world-renowned retinal specialist who has published more than 300 scientific papers and 11 textbooks, with particular interest in diseases of the macula, such as diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration. He has also been given awards and distinctions in his field for contributions on retinal imaging, drug development, ophthalmic laser, and the diagnosis and treatment of macular and retinal diseases. Most recently, he was given an honorary doctorate at the University of Ancona, the Michelson Award for Retinal Vascular Disease in Gent, the Alcon Research Institution Award, a distinguished alumnus award at Boston University, and a lifetime achievement award by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
