| الوصف: | We evaluated the clinical utility of ultra-widefield imaging as an adjunctive tool for training resident ophthalmologists in the detection of retinal breaks. This was a prospective study conducted at a secondary health care center (Tri-Service General Hospital) in Taiwan. Participants were 44 patients (53 eyes) who were referred to our hospital after being diagnosed with retinal breaks. Patients first underwent an indirect ophthalmoscopy examination of the total fundus without scleral depression by our junior (first and second year) or senior (third and fourth year) resident ophthalmologist and then underwent an ultra-widefield imaging examination with a central image and four gaze-steered (up, down, nasal, and temporal) images to determine the number of retinal breaks in the total fundus and the four quadrants. Of the total 53 eyes, 31 were examined by junior residents and 22 were examined by senior residents. In the group of junior residents, ultra-widefield imaging was significantly better at detecting retinal breaks of the total fundus (49 vs. 33 retinal breaks, p < 0.001) and the temporal quadrant (17 vs. 10 retinal breaks, p = 0.018) than indirect ophthalmoscopy. In the group of senior residents, there was no significant difference in the ability to detect retinal breaks in the total fundus or each of the four quadrants with ultra-widefield imaging or indirect ophthalmoscopy. Our results indicate that, compared to indirect ophthalmoscopy, ultra-widefield imaging with a central image and four gaze-steered images has a better performance and is a useful adjunct tool for the detection of retinal breaks in junior resident training. Additionally, it could be a useful method for teaching indirect ophthalmoscopy examination to junior residents. |
