Multimodal imaging is the concept of "bundling" images obtained from various imaging modalities, viz., fundus photograph, fundus autofluorescence imaging, infrared (IR) imaging, simultaneous fluorescein and indocyanine angiography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and, more recently, OCT angiography. Each modality has its pros and cons as well as its limitations. Combination of multiple imaging techniques will overcome their individual weaknesses and give a comprehensive picture. Such approach helps in accurate localization of a lesion and understanding the pathology in posterior segment. It is important to know imaging of normal eye before one starts evaluating pathology. This article describes multimodal imaging modalities in detail and discusses healthy eye features as seen on various imaging modalities mentioned above.
多模态成像是“捆绑”来自各种成像模式的图像的概念,即眼底照相、眼底自发荧光成像、近红外(IR)成像、荧光素和吲哚青绿同时造影、光学相干断层扫描(OCT),以及最近的 OCT 血管造影。每种模式都有其优缺点和局限性。多种成像技术的结合将克服它们各自的弱点,并提供全面的图像。这种方法有助于准确定位病变并了解后节的病理。在评估病理之前,了解正常眼的成像非常重要。本文详细描述了多模态成像模式,并讨论了上述各种成像模式下正常眼的特征。
