Comparison of OCT and histology results – Transplant lamination

Laminated area Large laminated area + rosettes** Rosettes + small laminated area*** Rosettes only
OCT (N = 137) 66 27 39 71
OCT (% of total) 48% 20% 28% 52%
Histology (N = 141) 68 35 33 70
Histology (% of total) 48% 25% 23% 50%
Laminated areas missed (large & small) Large laminated area missed Small laminated area missed Lamination in OCT, but not in sections
Features missed by OCT 18* 11 14 13
% mistake rate 13% 8% 10% 9%
Accuracy rate 87% 92% 90% 91%
*

Experiments where a lamination area was estimated too large or too small are not included.

**

Large laminated area: lamination in most of cross-section

***

Small laminated area: less than 30% in cross-section

N = total # of experiments minus experiments without transplant.
