Comparative Study
Comparison of corneal endothelial image analysis by Konan SP8000 noncontact and Bio-Optics Bambi systems.
Compare corneal endothelial image analysis by Konan SP8000 and Bio-Optics Bambi image-analysis systems. ⋯ Cell densities measured by the Konan fixed-frame method were comparable with Konan and Bio-Optics Bambi's morphometric analysis, but not with the Bio-Optics Bambi fixed-frame method. The two morphometric analyses were comparable with minimal or no differences for the parameters that were studied. The Konan SP8000 endothelial image-analysis system may be useful for large-scale clinical trials determining cell loss; its noncontact system has many clinical benefits (including patient comfort, safety, ease of use, and short procedure time) and provides reliable cell-density calculations.
