Abstract

Ultra-widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscopy is an imaging technique that can take the 200-degree wide field of fundus image with non-mydriatic,which has been widely used in ophthalmology.Studies have shown that the ultra-widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscopy is sensitive in the screening of diabetic retinopathy and has the superiority to detect the peripheral retinal lesions compare to the traditional 7field fundus photography.In addition,the ultra-widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscopy has great significance for the screening,diagnosis and follow-up of other peripheral chorioretinopathy. Key words: Ultra-widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscopy;  diabetic retinopathy;  screening;  peripheral chorioretinopathy
