TI  - Agreement of two different spectral domain optical coherence tomography 
      instruments for retinal nerve fiber layer measurements.
PG  - 31-7
AB  - PURPOSE: To determine the agreement between Spectralis and Cirrus spectral domain 
      optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) measurements of peripapillary retinal nerve 
      fiber layer (RNFL) thickness. METHODS: Suspected or confirmed cases of glaucoma 
      who met the inclusion criteria underwent peripapillary RNFL thickness measurement 
      using both the Spectralis and Cirrus on the same day within a few minutes. 
      RESULTS: Measurements were performed on 103 eyes of 103 patients with mean age of 
      50.4+/-17.7 years. Mean RNFL thickness was 89.22+/-15.87 versus 84.54+/-13.68 microm using 
      Spectralis and Cirrus, respectively. The difference between measurements and the 
      average of paired measurements with the two devices showed a significant linear 
      relationship. Bland-Altman plots demonstrated that Spectralis thickness values 
      were systematically larger than that of Cirrus. CONCLUSION: Spectralis OCT 
      generates higher peripapillary RNFL thickness readings as compared to Cirrus OCT; 
      this should be kept in mind when values obtained with different instruments are 
      compared during follow-up.
