| Abstract

"Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides tissue morphology imagery at much higher resolution than other imaging modalities such as MRI or ultrasound, and the machines are comparatively cheaper. It is an easy technique to perform; is non-ionizing, and therefore safe. These benefits are driving a rapid transformation of OCT, from its principal application as a research tool, into an extension of the 'neurological examination' in routine office practice. Originally used in assessing the severity of tissue damage and prognosis of multiple sclerosis and various neuro-ophthalmic conditions, OCT is increasingly used in other neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, ALS, and Alzheimer's disease. This book is the first comprehensive review of the use of OCT in neurological diseases. The coverage includes a description of the technique and its utilization in a variety of neurologic conditions. Essential reading for neurologists, neuro-ophthalmologists, and neuroradiologists wanting an introductory account of the clinical applications of OCT"--Provided by publisher

"Neurological Diseases Optical Coherence Tomography in Neurological Disease, ed. Peter A. Calabresi, Laura J. Balcer, and Elliot M. Frohman. Published by Cambridge University Press. (c) Cambridge University Press 2015. While the neurological examination continues to represent the time-honored gold- standard for diagnosing and tracking tablethe clinical course of neurological disease, the sensitive and accurate ascertainment of CNS integrity remains a challenge. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an effective tool that has emerged over the past decade for measuring structure-function correlations and quantifying pathological changes that cannot be discerned by the human eye. Paraclinical tools such as OCT can complement the clinical neurological examination, similar to ways in which MRI has given us tremendous structural insights into the nervous system. As we begin to understand the remarkable capacity of the brain to compensate for neurological injury, the links between structure, function and electrophysiology provided uniquely by the afferent visual pathway will be critical"--Provided by publisher
