HARLOW, United Kingdom (PRWEB UK) 4 May 2018

The ‘HS-UK Slit Lamp Imaging Course’ provided attendees with a detailed overview of this highly-skilled ophthalmic imaging discipline. The day included lectures and demonstrations delivered by a faculty of experienced slit lamp imaging specialists, with topics such as; the history of the slit lamp and a step-by-step guide to basic eye examination. It also covered the various techniques required for anterior imaging, including; diffuse, focal and indirect illumination and retinal imaging using retro illumination.

The one-day programme offered 7.5 CPD points and consisted of short lectures, followed by in-depth hands-on workshops. These practical workshops proved to be very popular, giving delegates the opportunity to gain experience with HS-UK’s state-of-the-art imaging devices, including Haag-Streit’s BQ 900 slit lamp with IM900 imaging module, the FM 300 slit lamp mounted fundus camera, and the BX 900 slit lamp, often referred to as ‘the photographers slit lamp’.

Grant Duncan, HS-UK Clinical Training Manager, commented, “We continue to receive great feedback from ‘HS-UK Slit Lamp Imaging Course’ delegates. Our new training facility was extremely well-received and we are looking forward to hosting further educational courses and workshops here in the near future.”
