These are all adult patients.  It isn't the top box listing all the values,
it's the graph below with solid and dashed lines showing where in the range
they fall - this is the box that is grayed out.

I do change the date of birth for minors as well, then correct it.

Correct. Occasionally our physicians want to see the pediatric patients
results compared to the adult norms, so we change the patients date of birth
to one that will make the patient 18 yrs or older, produce the analysis,
send to visupak, then correct the DOB back right away.

Hi Lori,
 
Were you imaging a patient under the age of 18?  From what I remember there
is no normative data collected for children.

Hello all

 

Working with the Cirrus OCT - RNFL

 

Looking at several scan that have the Neuro-retinal Rim Thickness section is
a box of grey instead of graphed with green/yellow/red for normative
comparisons.  

 

Anyone with a reason on why some are grey boxes and others aren't?

 

Thanks
