Clinical data from MERLIN to be presented at Euretina 2022

At the Euretina 2022 annual meeting, in Hamburg on Sept 1-4, Dr Kiyoko Gocho will present more clinical results from the MERLIN project. During the lecture, she will show multimodal information on the retina at different scales, including three-dimensional cellular-resolution images, all acquired with the MERLIN device in clinical settings. The series of clinical cases […]

OCT reaches cellular resolution – MERLIN results got published

We are happy to announce that the joint-article submitted by the entire MERLIN consortium has been published in Scientific Reports last week. This paper covers more than 3 years of collaborative work for developing a novel retinal imaging instrument. As a peer-reviewed publication, it establishes the multi-modal and multi-scale retinal imaging capabilities of the Merlin […]

Clinical cases with MERLIN presented at ARVO 2022

At the ARVO 2022 annual meeting, in Denver on May 2nd, Dr Kiyoko Gocho presented the first results of the pilot clinical investigation in the MERLIN project. During the lecture, she showed extraordinary images that provided multimodal information on the retina at different scales, including three-dimensional cellular-resolution images, all acquired with the MERLIN device. The […]

H2020 MERLIN project celebrates successful final review

We are happy to announce the successful completion of our Horizon 2020 MERLIN project. We received a very positive evaluation from the European Commission last week after presenting the technical and clinical results of the new retinal imaging technology developed by MERLIN’s partners. We take this opportunity to thank our advisors throughout the world for […]

MERLIN results to be presented at ICOOR 2021

The 9th International Congress on OCT and OCT Angiography – ICOOR 2021 meeting – will be held in Rome on Dec 17-18. Michael Pircher and Nicolas Chateau will present MERLIN project outcomes. Their lectures will introduce the clinical-prototype developed by the consortium, which delivers multimodal information on the retina at different scales, including three-dimensional cellular-resolution […]

More than 170 subjects examined with MERLIN

MERLIN clincial protoypes were installed at Quinze-Vingts National Eye Hospital in Paris in December 2020, and Rigshopitaltet in Copenhagen in January 2021. Since then, clinicians have used it to examine the back of the eye of 177 subjects. The performance of the device, in terms of image quality and ergonomy, was confirmed on 35 healthy […]

MERLIN project at i2Eye 2021 online meeting

The fourth Autumn Course on Innovative Imaging in Eye Disease – i2Eye 2021 – organized jointly by the PARIS Eye Imaging group, the Vision Institute, and the University of Pittsburgh, will be held online on Oct 13-15 2021. This year again, ophthalmologists, physicists and biologists will address the latest advances in ocular imaging, how they […]

MERLIN project implements active retinal tracking

The MERLIN team recently integrated a new active retinal tracking technology (ARTT) in several multimodal retinal imaging prototypes. During retinal examinations, the natural movements of patients’ eyes have detrimental effects on the quality of retinal images. Distortion artifacts induced by eye motion are particularly pronounced in tomographic scans acquired with a high optical magnification. The […]
