Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010130456A1] The invention relates to a method for marking coagulation sites on a retina by means of a light source having the following steps: projecting a serial spot sequence of the light source from a sequential, one-dimensional series of individual spots on the retina by means of a beam deflection unit, wherein the individual spots indicate the coagulation sites; waiting for confirmation of the sequence of individual spots by means of entry of a confirmation signal; after confirming the sequence of the individual spots, recalculating an automated sequence of steps having a further serial spot sequence and projection of the same on the retina according to the first step; and subsequent repeating of the second and third steps. The invention further relates to a system for coagulating the retina, having an imaging diagnostic unit, a therapy beam for coagulating coagulation sites, a pilot beam for marking the coagulation sites by means of a spot sequence, a beam deflecting unit for generating the spot sequence and for positioning the therapy beam, an electronic control unit for controlling the above devices, a software interface, and an interactive interface.
