One of the most important causes of postoperative morbidity and mortality is insufficiently treated pain. Postoperarive pain that could not be treated sufficiently leads to problems like reduction in vital capacity and alveolar ventilation, pneumonia, tachycardia, hypertension, myocardial ischemia and infarction, conversion to chronic pain, delay in wound healing and prolonged hospital stay. Th...

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has transformed diagnostic ophthalmic imaging but until recently has been limited to the clinic setting. The development of spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT), with its improved speed and resolution, along with the development of a handheld OCT scanner, enabled portable imaging of patients unable to sit in a conventional tabletop scanner. This handheld SD-OCT unit h...
