Topcon Launches the Maestro2 with Automated OCTA

Topcon has announced the launch of the Maestro2 Automated OCT/Fundus Camera, now with OCTA. Building on the success of its predecessor, the 3D OCT-1 Maestro, the new Maestro2 adds even more clinical utility to its multimodality platform, according to a company news release.

The Maestro2 is a fully automated OCT system that can capture high-resolution non-mydriatic, true color fundus photography, OCT, and OCTA with the single press of a button. This multimodal system also now offers the “Hood Report” for the structure/function analysis of glaucoma. Additionally, it features a 360° rotating intuitive touchscreen, a small footprint and space-saving design, according to Topcon.

First introduced in 2014, OCT Angiography, with its presentation of the vascular network of the retina, is rapidly growing in clinical acceptance. It has become a valuable aid in the detection and monitoring of key retinal pathologies such as choroidal neovascularization, diabetic retinopathy, microaneurysms, and more. Topcon’s OCTA offering, for both its SS-OCT and SD-OCT models, demonstrates its investment in this technology across its platforms for utilization.

The Maestro2 features IMAGEnet 6 capture software for dynamic viewing of OCT and imaging data. Additionally, Topcon’s exclusive PinPoint Registration matches specified areas within OCT and OCTA scans upon the color fundus image. The Maestro2’s new follow-up scan feature scans the exact same location each patient visit, beneficial for follow-up visits and tracking diseases over time. An extensive portfolio of reports for macula, anterior, and glaucoma allows the practitioner access to advanced diagnostic data.

“The Maestro2 is the culmination of our efforts to deliver a powerful OCT system that not only features exceptional image quality and advanced diagnostic capabilities such as OCTA but also offers the practitioner workflow enhancements, detailed image analysis and reporting functions, and data management capabilities,” John Trefethen, Vice President of Global Marketing & Product Design for Topcon, said in the news release. “With the addition of fully automated OCTA, the Maestro2 truly is the most comprehensive OCT system in the marketplace, and we are excited to bring this innovative technology to eye care specialists around the globe.”
