Prevalence of outer retinal tubulation in eyes with choroidal neovascularization
BACKGROUND Outer retinal tubulations (ORTs) are branching tubular structures located in the outer nuclear layer of the retina. The goal of this study is to determine the prevalence of ORTs observed in eyes with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) undergoing treatment with anti-angiogenic intravitreous injection (IVI) with anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) at the Ophthalmology Depart...
متن کاملOuter retinal tubulation analysis in cases of macular dystrophy.
Macular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized either by retina pigment epithelium (RPE) atrophy or by the deposit of substances –mainly lipofuscin above or below the RPE. Outer retinal tubulation (ORT) was described recently in tomographic images as pseudo-cystic spaces surrounded by a hyper-reflective wall located in the outer retinal layers.1,2 We have analyzed the p...
متن کاملSD-OCT and Adaptive Optics Imaging of Outer Retinal Tubulation
PURPOSE To investigate outer retinal tubulation (ORT) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and an adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope (AOSLO). To document the frequency of ORT in atrophic retinal conditions and quantify ORT dimensions versus adjacent retinal layers. METHODS SD-OCT images were reviewed for the presence of retinal atrophy, scarring, and/or exuda...
متن کاملOuter retinal tubulation: a novel optical coherence tomography finding.
OBJECTIVE To describe tubular structures found in the outer retina seen in a variety of retinal disorders. METHODS Sixty-nine eyes of 63 patients were examined with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. Optical coherence tomography C-scans were correlated with their corresponding B-scans. The prevalence, number, size, and shape of the tubular structures were determined. RESULTS Bran...
متن کاملDegenerative Retinal Disorders. Clinical and Laboratory Investigations
Mechanisms of Control ofGene Expression is a collection of brief papers presented at the UCLA Symposia on Molecular and Cellular Biology in 1987. The papers are organized into five chapters covering several areas of current molecular genetic research: gene regulation in prokaryotes, gene regulation in eukaryotes (transcriptional control and DNA-protein interactions), mRNA splicing and regulatio...
