Proposed Nomenclature for Landmarks in Anterior-Segment OCT: The APOSTEL-AS Panel Consensus.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) has broad clinical and research utility. The utility of quantitative data derived from AS-OCT is, however, dependent on the quality and consistency of the cumulative evidence base.

Objective

To develop consensus-based nomenclature that supports standardized reporting of AS-OCT image acquisition and analyses as a foundation to improve research reproducibility.

Design, setting, and participants

A multistage consensus exercise was undertaken, in 2024, with an expert panel of ophthalmologists, optometrists, and vision scientists, informed by a scoping review to identify the range of AS-OCT applications and terminologies in use. Panel members were selected to represent the breadth of clinical areas identifie
