How to Export DICOM from HEYEX 2

📘

The recommended settings for macula scan are

  • Retina 3D, horizontal b-scans (no fundus image should be exported with b-scans)

  • Retinal area of interest – from 6 till 12 mm.

  • Altris AI analyses the central sector of the retina and does not provide optic nerve analysis

For more accurate results, we kindly ask you to select 6 or 7мм zone (please do not export wide scans up to 12mm).

Heidelberg OCT uses degrees, not mm. Please pay attention on the following equivalent: 1mm ~ 3.3° -> 7mm scan ~ 23,1°
