Optimization of laser therapy

摘要

Systems and processes for the optimization of laser treatment of an eye are disclosed. The process can include receiving a set of parameters of a laser treatment (e.g., an aerial beam size, contact lens, pulse duration, and the desired clinical grade), determining an estimated size of a lesion to be generated by the laser treatment beam, receiving a lesion pattern density (e.g., full grid, mild grid, or other), and determining a recommended pattern of laser treatment beam spots. The recommended pattern of laser treatment beam spots may include a recommended number of laser treatment spots and a spacing between the spots.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for laser treatment of an eye of a patient performed by one or more computer processors, the method comprising:
receiving, using the one or more computer processors, a set of parameters of a laser treatment and a desired lesion pattern density, wherein the set of parameters of the laser treatment comprises one or more parameters of a laser treatment beam; determining, using the one or more computer processors, an estimated size of a lesion to be generated by the laser treatment beam,
wherein the estimated size of the lesion is determined by the one or more computer processors using reference data as input,wherein the reference data comprises pairs of sets of parameters of laser treatments and corresponding estimated lesion sizes, andwherein the estimated size of the lesion is a function of the received set of parameters of the laser treatment; and determining, using the one or more computer processors, a recommended pattern of laser treatment beam spots that are arranged to produce a plurality of lesions in the eye of the patient that result in the desired lesion pattern density,
wherein the recommended pattern of laser treatment beam spots is determined by the one or more computer processors using the determined estimated size of the lesion and the received desired lesion pattern density as input.
