FEATURES
The ArcScan Insight® 100 scanner is a precision high frequency ultrasound device for imaging and biometry of the eye. It uses core proprietary technology that originally developed in cooperation with Columbia/Weill University. A mechanically controlled 50 MHz transducer scans the eye in an arc shaped motion whereby its curvature approximates the anterior ocular surface.
During this process the device produces images with 1 micron resolution of the cornea or the anterior segment. In addition, measurements can also be made of the anatomic structures comprising the anterior of the eye such as anterior chamber depth, angle-to-angle width, and sulcus-to-sulcus width, and pathologic structures, such as solid masses and cysts.
Designed for functional efficiency and ease of use, the system is comprised of four main components: the ArcScan Insight® 100 Scanner, the Insight software package, the fluidics module and the electronics unit.
Anterior Segment imaging and biometry
ANTERIOR SEGMENT IMAGING IS USED FOR:
Biometry for lens replacement including sulcus to sulcus distance (for posterior chamber IOL) or angle-to-angle distance (for anterior chamber IOL)
Assessment of pathology
In anterior segment imaging mode, the scan radius is set to 12 mm during setup and the focal plane is set on the ciliary body.
Capsule Imaging
CAPSULE IMAGING MODE IS USED FOR:
Biometry for pre-op and post-op lens replacement including sulcus to sulcus distance, angle-to-angle distance, anterior chamber depth, capsule thickness, anterior capsule curvature, posterior capsule curvature, capsule diameter, and capsule volume
Assessment of pathology
Cornea imaging and biometry
CORNEAL IMAGING IS USED FOR:
Pre-LASIK biometry
Early detection of Keratoconus
Evaluation of corneal scars
Post-LASIK biometry
The Corneal Imaging mode uses an arc radius of 8-9 mm to match the cornea’s radius of curvature. The scan area is set to image the entire cornea using four equally spaced meridians.
