Air-Puff Tonometers eBook

Air-Puff Tonometers presents the latest achievements and research works in the area of intraocular pressure measurement by the air-puff method. This method is used, for example, by the Corvis® ST, owing to the ultra-high-speed Scheimpflug camera, which records corneal deformation being the response to an air puff. The text also covers:

New methods of image analysis and processing
New engineering methods used in devices
Method reducing measurement (intraocular pressure) errors
The change in the blood pulsation phase during measurement that affects the results in different ways
Other IOP measurement methods (using the air-puff method)
Medical and engineering problems with the air-puff method

This book is recommended reading for those involved in the analysis and processing of images and wanting to expand their knowledge of contemporary diagnostic methods and image analysis.
