Abstract:
Optical density (OD) analysis is a kind of technology that analyzes transmitted/reflective light intensity of target tissue to learn certain characters of tissue objectively by calculating pixel values of tissue image with the help of computer technology.OD can provide 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional information and embody tiny changes of tissue systematically.It has aroused attention gradually in ophthalmology imaging in recent years.Various studies had shown diagnositc and prognostic value of OD in ocular diseases.This paper reviewed the definition of OD,application of OD in various fields,advantages and disadvantages of OD,analysis method of OD and application of OD in ophthalmology.
