Article Synopsis
- Canines have a proven ability to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in various diseases, making them effective as medical alert dogs or in disease detection from human samples.
- Early research indicates that dogs can successfully identify malignant cells in lung cancer cases through fluid and breath samples, which is significant given lung cancer's status as a leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S.
- The potential use of trained medical scent detection canines presents a promising alternative to traditional low-dose CT screening, addressing issues like cost, radiation exposure, and patient compliance.
Purpose In this study, we aimed to compare axial length (AL) measurements of the IOLMaster 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany), based on partial coherence interferometry (PCI) versus the Aladdin (Topcon Healthcare, Oakland, NJ), based on optical low-coherence interferometry (OLCI), in a clinical setting. Methods A retrospective analysis of the records of patients presenting for cataract surgery at an ophthalmology practice between October 2019 and March 2020 was performed. All patients had biometry measurements on the IOLMaster 500 and the Aladdin.
