Optical coherence tomography angiography in primary eye care

نویسندگان

چکیده

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT‐A) is a non‐invasive imaging modality for assessing the vasculature within ocular structures including retina, macula, choroid and optic nerve. OCT‐A has wide range of clinical applications in various optometric conditions which have been independently reported literature. This paper aims to present review current literature on application practice as well analyse evaluate quality available evidence. included 78 articles from search conducted 26 May 2019 across following databases: Cochrane Library Systematic Reviews, Medline, Scopus Web Science.

Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a noninvasive approach that can visualize blood vessels down to the capillary level. With the advent of high-speed OCT and efficient algorithms, practical OCTA of ocular circulation is now available to ophthalmologists. Clinical investigations that used OCTA have increased exponentially in the past few years. This review will cover the history ...

Optical coherence tomography angiography

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was one of the biggest advances in ophthalmic imaging. Building on that platform, OCT angiography (OCTA) provides depth resolved images of blood flow in the retina and choroid with levels of detail far exceeding that obtained with older forms of imaging. This new modality is challenging because of the need for new equipment and processing techniques, current l...

Evaluation of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Findings in Patients with Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion

Purpose: To analyze the correlation of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings with visual acuity (VA) in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 20 eyes of 20 patients with unilateral BRVO involving the macula referred to the ophthalmology clinic of Rassoul Akram Hospital. OCTA imaging was conducted for all patie...

Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in AMD Authors

Since its debut more than two decades ago, profound advances in the scanning speed, resolution and image depth led to an explosive growth of OCT in clinical practice, with a significant effect in clinical decision making.(2) Even though technical sophistication improved the OCT diagnostic yield for wet agerelated macular degeneration (AMD), there are no agreed-on standards for diagnosing CNV ba...
