Jonathan Oakley is an employee of Voxeleron LLC who created the OCT analysis software used in the study. The software found on the host device, the Cirrus, is not able to perform the segmentations required of this study. The data exported from the Cirrus devices was in Dicom format that required conversion to raw data for processing in Orion. Dr. Oakley performed all of the necessary conversion.
