Which modality to use to measure axial length with the BEST PRECISION
Optical low coherence interferometry
Is the a-scan quantitative or qualitative
Quantitative
What are the 3 axial data found from a-scan
Axial length
AC depth
Corneal thickness
Is the A-scan precise in measuring?
No, it is hard to be accurate
Is the b-scan quantitative or qualitative?
Qualitative
Acoustical modalities - what kind of waves?
Ultrasound
Acoustical modalities - how is the penetration
Good
Acoustical modalities - does it require immersion coupling
Yes - often a contact technique
Optical modalities - what kind of waves
Visible or infrared radiation
