Topcon Introduces NW500 Non-Mydriatic Retinal Camera to the US Market
Topcon Healthcare has introduced a new user-friendly, robotic fundus camera to the US market. The NW500 delivers reliable, high-quality imaging even in ambient light and features several enhanced features for added clinical versatility.
The camera offers innovative slit scan illumination and a rolling shutter mechanism, which help to overcome one of the known causes of poorly graded images effectively imaging smaller pupils, from 2.0mm or more*. A 12-megapixel sensor delivers excellent quality color fundus images for clear review and analysis.
The NW500 contributes to a streamlined workflow and enhanced patient experience by offering the ability to acquire retinal images in a lighted setting without the need to dilate patients. The NW500 offers excellent quality color fundus images across the traditional three fixation points (Disc, Center, and Macula) as well as the nine fixation positions for peripheral photography.
Touch-screen operation offers rapid, simple capture with just one touch. Fully-automated operation gives clinicians the flexibility to delegate screening to non-clinical staff. The improved processing speed** means it takes less time to capture images and gives operators the ability to increase patient throughput.
A variety of connectivity options are available to accommodate the individual needs of clinical practices.
