Sensitivity and Specificity of the NOVA-DN VEP Protocol and a Novel Analysis of Optical Coherence Tomography Images for Glaucoma Diagnosis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Optical Coherence Tomography and Visual evoked potential for Glaucoma Diagnosis. Completed, enrolled 136 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Evaluate sensitivity and specificity of NOVA-DN visually evoked potentials (VEP) protocol and new software method (Corda) for glaucoma detection using optical coherence tomography (OCT) images to differentiate between normal subjects and glaucoma suspects.

Interventions
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging modality that provides micrometer-scale resolution.It has been revolutionized in recent years by exploitation of Fourier domain (FD) techniques, which have a significant sensitivity advantage over traditional time domain (TD) OCT. In spectral-domain (SD-OCT) the reference mirror is stationary, and OCT signal is acquired using a spectrometer as detector or by varying the wavelength of the light source.
Visual evoked potential is a means of objectively testing visual field by viewing a computer monitor at 1 meter with a square black/white checkerboard pattern reversal stimulus. Electrodes are placed on the head and face to monitor Electroencephalogram (EEG) activity during testing. Output parameters from VEP system include amplitude and latency measures for each stimuli.
