The Technology

What is Retinal Hyperspectral Imaging?

Retinal hyperspectral imaging is a groundbreaking technique that captures images of the retina across a wide range of wavelengths. By analysing the spectral signatures of retinal tissues, this technology provides comprehensive information about cellular composition, metabolic activity, and microvascular patterns.

What is Hypercolour?

Hypercolour is a non-mydriatic hyperspectral fundus camera developed by Enlighten Imaging since 2019. It captures a series of high-resolution retinal images at wavelengths ranging from 450 nm to 850 nm, with a 45-degree field of view, in just one-third of a second, semi-autonomously.
