Description
Nikon Optos Monaco Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging System
Advanced Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging with Integrated Spectral-Domain OCT
The Nikon Optos Monaco Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging System is an advanced multimodal ophthalmic imaging platform that combines ultra-widefield retinal imaging with high-resolution Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT). Designed for comprehensive retinal examination and efficient clinical workflow, Monaco enables eye care professionals to visualize both peripheral and central retinal pathology within a single integrated system.
By combining Optos’ patented ultra-widefield (UWF) optomap® technology with precise SD-OCT cross-sectional imaging, the Monaco system supports earlier disease detection, improved diagnosis, and more effective long-term monitoring of retinal conditions. The platform captures detailed retinal images without requiring extensive pupil dilation in many patients, improving both patient comfort and clinical efficiency.
Ideal for ophthalmology clinics, retina specialists, hospitals, research institutions, and academic medical centers, the Nikon Optos Monaco delivers exceptional imaging performance across a broad spectrum of retinal diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, retinal vascular disorders, macular degeneration, peripheral retinal lesions, and inherited retinal diseases.
Why Choose the Nikon Optos Monaco?
Modern retinal care requires more than traditional fundus photography. Clinicians need comprehensive visualization, advanced diagnostic tools, and streamlined workflow to accurately evaluate both peripheral and central retinal pathology.
The Nikon Optos Monaco provides an all-in-one imaging solution by integrating multiple imaging technologies into a single workstation.
Key advantages include:
- Ultra-widefield retinal imaging up to approximately 200°
- Integrated Spectral-Domain OCT
- Non-contact image acquisition
- Non-mydriatic imaging capability for many patients
- High-speed OCT scanning
- Multimodal retinal imaging
- Simultaneous central and peripheral retinal assessment
- Excellent patient comfort
- Efficient clinical workflow
- Digital image management and follow-up comparison
Features and Benefits
UWF with integrated OCT saves time, space and minimizes patient movement.
High resolution 200º single-capture optomap images improve pathology detection and management frommacula through the far periphery.
Non-mydriatic, cSlO imaging through most cataracts and small pupils (2 mm).
3-in-1 Color Depth ImagingTM provides important clinical data from the retinal surface through the choroid.
Green laser autofluorescence minimizes patient exposure to blue light and shows macula and optic nerve head detail.
Central pole OCT provides comprehensive multi-modal imaging.
optomap images and OCT scans are correlated to facilitate pathology examination.
Color, AF, and OCT images are shown in a single, comprehensive view.
Fast, comfortable image acquisition is easier on patients and improves clinic flow.
OptosAdvance Image Management facilitates image review and consultations and includes measurement and auto montage capabilities.
