Event Details
Course introduction:
During this live and interactive eSeminar, we will review the major updates in the classification of Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) in ICROP3. This will include posterior Zone II, reference to a notch, recognition of plus disease as a continuous spectrum and aggressive ROP. We will discuss ROP regression and reactivation as well as how new advances in artificial intelligence are providing hints as to the future of how the disease is managed. Additionally, we will discuss probable areas of change for ICROP4.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this seminar the participants will be able to:
• List the important changes in classification since ICROP2
• Discuss the presence of AI in ROP now and in the future
• Describe how imaging may be the most important topic in ICROP4

Susan is a research administrator and ROP Program Manager Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, OR. Susan has coordinated several multi-center retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) related research projects over the past 11 years. During this time, Susan has helped in designing the i-ROP database and structure for expert readers to evaluate ROP exams through remote imaging review. She performs quality control for data input from nearly a dozen research sites and manages a large database of ROP data including over 200,000 retinal images. Susan is a part of a team that has built an artificial intelligence tool to help assist physicians in determining the presence of Plus disease and is indicated for use with the RetCam Ophthalmic Imaging System. This tool has recently been designated as a breakthrough device by the FDA.
Susan is the acting ROP coordinator for Doernbecher Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Oregon Health & Science University and works on the ROP Task Force in that unit along with other staff at Doernbecher NICU to provide clinical and research data to help develop new protocols for oxygen management of infants at risk of ROP.
Susan was the only non-physician member of the writing committee for the latest International Classification of Retinopathy of Prematurity Third Edition published in Ophthalmology in October 2021.M.S.
