Comparison of retinal thickness measurements among four different optical coherence tomography devices.

ABSTRACT: We sought to compare the retinal thickness measurements collected using different optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices. This prospective study included 21 healthy cases, and the retinal thickness was measured using the PLEX Elite (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, California, USA), DRI OCT-1 Atlantis (Topcon Corp, Tokyo, Japan), Cirrus 5000 HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec), and Spectralis OCT (Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany), respectively. The mean central retinal thickness (CRT) and mean retinal thickness of the Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) area were compared. The CRT varied significantly among the different OCT devices (P < 0.001). Post-hoc analysis revealed that the CRT measured using PLEX Elite (278.95 ± 20.04 µm) and Spectralis (271.86 ± 17.92 µm) were
