Defining Retinal Structures Using Hyperspectral Retinal Imaging

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study evaluates hyperspectral retinal imaging as a novel, non-invasive imaging technique to characterise retinal and optic nerve structures in healthy individuals and patients with eye disease. Hyperspectral imaging captures retinal data across multiple wavelengths to generate detailed spectral information that may reveal features not visible with conventional retinal photography. Approximately 1000 participants will undergo multi-modal ophthalmic imaging in Melbourne, Australia, including hyperspectral imaging, OCT, fundus photography, and related tests. The study aims to compare hyperspectral imaging with standard imaging methods and assess its ability to identify retinal biomarkers associated with diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration.

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Ocular conditions preventing adequate retinal imaging (e.g., dense cataract, severe corneal opacity, vitreous haemorrhage)
  • History of narrow anterior chamber angle or risk of angle closure glaucoma where dilation is considered unsafe
  • Any condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would compromise participant safety or image quality

Other

  • Inability to provide informed consent
  • Known contraindication to pharmacological pupil dilation

Who the study is looking for

  • Adults aged 18 years and older
  • Able to provide informed consent
  • Willing and able to attend a study visit at the Centre for Eye Research Australia
  • Participants with diagnosed retinal or optic nerve disease (e.g., diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration)
  • Age- and sex-matched healthy control participants without known retinal or optic nerve disease

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
