| Summary: |
Purpose: Graphic
documentation of retinal examination results in clinical
ophthalmological practice is often depicted using
pictures or in handwritten form. Popular software
products used to describe changes in the fundus do not
vary much from simple graphic programs that enable to
insert, scale and edit basic graphic elements such as: a
circle, rectangle, arrow or text. Displaying the results
of retinal examinations in a unified way is difficult to
achieve. Therefore, we devised and implemented modern
software tools for this purpose.
Materials and methods: A computer program
enabling to quickly and intuitively form graphs of the
fundus, that can be digitally archived or printed was
created. Especially for the needs of ophthalmological
clinics, a set of standard digital symbols used to
document the results of retinal examinations was
developed and installed in a library of graphic symbols.
These symbols are divided into the following categories:
preoperative, postoperative, neovascularization,
retinopathy of prematurity. The appropriate symbol can
be selected with a click of the mouse and
dragged-and-dropped on the canvas of the fundus.
Results: Current forms of documenting results of
retinal examinations are unsatisfactory, due to the fact
that they are time consuming and imprecise. Unequivocal
interpretation is difficult or in some cases impossible.
Using the developed computer program a sketch of the
fundus can be created much more quickly than by hand
drawing. Additionally the quality of the medical
documentation using a system of well described and
standardized symbols will be enhanced.
Conclusions:
1.Graphic symbols used to document the results of
retinal examinations are a part of everyday clinical
practice.
2.The designed computer program will allow quick and
intuitive graphical creation of fundus sketches that can
be either digitally archived or printed. |
