| Abstract;We evaluated the possible interobserver differences in assessing the optic disc in 30 glaucomatous eyes recorded by a Heidelberg Retina Tomograph. The records were analyzed by two glaucoma specialists independently regarding disk area, cup area, cup volume, rim volume and maximum cup depth. There were close correlations between the findings by the two observers in all the five parameters(coefficients of correlation: 0.72-1.00) with no significant interobserver differences(p<0.05). The findings show that reproducible interpretation of disc margin is possible when performed by trained observers and even when the manipulation is performed manually. (author abst.) |
