Altris AI is an artificial intelligence platform for OCT analysis, apparently capable of detecting more than 70 retinal pathologies and biomarkers, the highest among such technologies worldwide.
Altris AI has recently launched an advanced glaucoma "Optic Disc Analysis module" for OCT scans.
Traditionally, OCT results are dependent on normative databases pre-loaded in the machine. These databases can be insufficient or skewed for populations not usually seen in the region. For example, the machine can have more caucasian datasets, even though the population being evaluated is Asian or African.
The new module evaluates optic disc parameters using OCT, providing personalized assessments by accounting for individual disc sizes and angle of rim absence. This tailored approach eliminates reliance on normative databases, making evaluations more accurate and patient-specific.
Key parameters evaluated by Altris AI’s Optic Disc Analysis include:
- Disc area
- Cup area
- Cup volume
- Minimal Cup depth
- Maximum Cup depth
- Cup/Disc area ratio
- Rim Absence angle
- Disc-Damage Likelihood Scale (DDLS)
Altris AI’s platform assigns a severity score for optic disc damage on a scale from 1 to 10, offering valuable insights into glaucomatous changes. Furthermore, it enables cross-evaluation across different OCT systems, allowing practitioners to analyze both macula and optic disc pathology, even when data originates from multiple OCT devices.
By combining GCC Asymmetry (a program developed by Altris AI previously, designed to detect early risk of glaucoma), and Advanced Optic Disc analysis for glaucoma, this technology enables eye-care practitioners to make faster evaluations and explore a wider range of treatment options. This streamlined approach empowers users with timely, actionable data, ultimately improving patient outcomes and care.
This innovation not only reduces false positive referrals but also enhances early detection and treatment planning—ensuring better outcomes for patients and optimizing healthcare resources.
