Haag-Streit UK to host UK-wide AngioVue roadshow
Harlow, Essex (PRWEB UK) 5 June 2015 -- Haag-Streit UK, the leading manufacturer and distributor of gold-standard optometry and ophthalmic equipment, is about to embark on a roadshow to showcase the newly-launched AngioVue OCT Angiography (OCT-A) system.
This 2-week roadshow will take place at numerous hospital locations throughout the UK, commencing Monday 22nd June. The series of visits was organised by Jacqui Kenyon, HS-UK Product Manager for the AngioVue. The roadshow will give Ophthalmologists and Imaging Specialists the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with the AngioVue, using their own patients. Staff will receive practical demonstrations along with an in-depth explanation of how to interpret the OCT-A images.
The AngioVue is the first commercial OCT-A system capable of imaging and displaying the function of the ocular microvasculature, through a non-invasive procedure. The innovative system uses a unique dyeless technique to quickly evaluate the functional blood flow of the retina and optic nerve. This method allows the procedure to be performed in everyday clinical practice and unlike fluorescein angiography, can be repeated as often as required, and with no risk to the patient.
Jacqui Kenyon, HS-UK Product Manager, said, “I am really excited to showcase the AngioVue at the forthcoming UK-wide roadshow. It is the only commercial OCT-A system that is available today, there is no other device presently in the market. The roadshow will give us the opportunity to demonstrate this unique product and allow the revolutionary technology to be seen for the first time in many hospitals.”
If you are interested in a demonstration of the AngioVue, please contact Haag-Streit UK on (01279) 883807 or email angiovue(at)haag-streit-uk(dot)com.
