Retro mode variation on a theme of Drusen
Guido Ricciotti, MD, Alexandra Miere, MD, PhD
NIDEK is pleased to announce the 3rd Annual NIDEK IMAGEs OF THE YEAR Award. While continuing the theme “invisible to visible,” this year’s contest highlighted how the Mirante Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope (NIDEK) helps retina specialists find obscure anatomical structures with its multiple imaging techniques, especially its unique Retro mode modality.
Eye care professionals from around the world voted online to choose a striking set of color and Retro mode images captured by the Mirante. The winning images for 2022 come from Guido Ricciotti, MD, and Alexandra Miere, MD, PhD, from the Department of Ophthalmology, Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal de Créteil, France.
We congratulate Dr. Ricciotti and Dr. Miere on winning the 3rd Annual NIDEK IMAGEs OF THE YEAR Award and thank them for sharing thier exceptional experience with the Mirante. We look forward to future collaboration.
Comments from Dr. Ricciotti and Dr. Miere
We are honored that our image has been selected as the NIDEK Image of the year among so many fascinating submissions to this contest.
Mirante is a versatile imaging device offering high quality multimodal imaging for interrogating retinal disease.
The Retro mode modality is an important imaging tool in this device, allowing a pseudo3D representation of even subtle retinal changes.
Our image shows some of the possible uses of this imaging technique.
We will undoubtedly continue to discover the potential of this imaging device in the future.
2nd and 3rd place images

What is Retro mode?
Retro mode is a unique non-invasive technique incorporated into the Mirante for detecting pathologic changes in the retina.
This imaging modality uses scattered IR light to detect abnormal reflection in the retina caused by drusen, edema and other subtle chorioretinal pathologies.
