Lack of adoption of ocular imaging standards (DICOM) is bad for research & clinical care. NEI U.S. FDA @ONC_HealthIT have developed a roadmap for interoperability together. We will consider this strongly in future research grants Ophthalmology: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Terrific morning session on AI in #ophthalmology at #RSLisbon2024. The field is quickly evolving with better discrimination between diabetic retinopathy severity and use of readily available imaging to screen for vision threatening complications.

Smaller ellipsoid zone lesion size, younger age, and lack of foveal involvement portended a greater reduction in disease progression with NT-501 (encapsulated cell technology) for macular telangiectasis type 2. Presented by Anthony Capone at #RSLisbon2024 TheRetinaSociety

Faricimab associated with greater reductions in pigment epithelial detachment. Better early drying of fluid associated with greater likelihood of extension to 16 weeks. Over 50% could have been extended to 20 weeks. Terrific talks at #RSLisbon2023 TheRetinaSociety John D Pitcher III MD

Sharing our latest work in BJO-->progressive inner retinal thinning in MacTel occurs at a similar rate as in diabetic retinal neurodegeneration, echoing our 2016 PNAS findings. >50% of MacTel subjects have #diabetes. Our research using #AI on the retina coming in the future!
