9.10 DESCRIPTION OF THE COMMANDS AND SCREENS OF THE
KERATRON™ SCOUT SOFTWARE
9.10.1 INTRODUCTION
In this section only the basic operations are described. For a more comprehensive
and updated description of the software functions, refer also to the HELP menu
(command or key “?” on the menu bar).
9.10.2 TRANSFERRING AN IMAGE FRO
M KERATRON™
In the acquisition menu, select “From Keratron Onda” or click the icon on the Scout
software bar: “Acquire Onda images" and wait for Keratron™ to send the data.
The exams of unsatisfactory quality, those that have been clearly moved, or those
that were taken while the patient blinked can be eliminated immediately.
In the case of the unit’s first use by the operator, it is suggested to take 6-8
photographs of the same eye and check repeatability by means of the Acquire menu,
“
Repeatability Check
” until a satisfactory result is obtained.
As a standard procedure it is advisable to take 3-4 photographs per eye to check
repeatability and to save the best one (or the best two).
9.10.3 HOW TO PROCESS, PRINT AND SAVE IMAGES
After acquiring and transferring the images, it is possible to process them by double
clicking each image that has not already been processed by the unit. It is however
advisable to process all the images using menu “Process All” or clicking the related
icon.
Processing a topographic image means analyzing the circular mires’ reflections on
the cornea to obtain a topographic map.
The rings centering and tracking is made evident in the Photo-process window.
Here you can check how and where within the map this has been made
properly, without artifacts, and here you can intervene by adjusting processing
conditions and/or erasing bad tracks.
To select a graphical display, created automatically and displayed on the screen
during processing (including window Photo-
Process), select “Options” from menu
“Tools”, then select “Processing”. In section “Default Map Type” select the
desired representation, then press OK.
