Sensitivity and specificity of scanning laser polarimetry using the GDx.
BACKGROUND/AIMS To determine the sensitivity and the specificity of the GDx in the detection of (1) advanced glaucoma, (2) early glaucoma, and (3) nerve fibre bundle defects (NFBD). METHODS Group A comprised 20 eyes with reproducible glaucomatous visual field defects confirmed by octopus perimetry, group B consisted of 10 eyes with normal visual fields but either glaucomatous NFBD or deterior...

متن کاملSpecificity and sensitivity of glaucoma detection in the Japanese population using scanning laser polarimetry.
AIMS To investigate the usefulness of the scanning laser polarimeter (GDx; GDx Nerve Fiber Analyzer) for glaucoma detection in the Japanese population, and to investigate the difference in the thickness of retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) between normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS 69 eyes of 69 normal subjects and 115 eyes of 115 chronic open angle g...
متن کاملSensitivity and specificity of new GDx parameters.
PURPOSE The GDx is a scanning laser polarimeter that assesses peripapillary nerve fiber layer thickness. In addition to the 14 existing outcome parameters, four new parameters have been described recently: the Ellipse Standard Deviation (ESD), the Normalized Superior Area (NSA), the Normalized Inferior Area (NIA) and the Discriminant Analysis (DA). The aim of this study was to investigate the s...
