Detection of diabetic foveal edema with biomicroscopy, fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography.
نویسندگان
چکیده
To describe different techniques for the detection of diabetic foveal edema. A retrospective review of the detection of diabetic foveal edema. Noncontact lens biomicroscopy is relatively insensitive in mild foveal thickening apparent on optical coherence tomography. Optical coherence tomography measurements can detect early retinal damage in diabetic retinopathy patients.

Optical coherence tomography findings in diabetic macular edema before and after vitrectomy.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To assess the role of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the evaluation and follow-up after vitrectomy for diabetic macular edema. MATERIALS AND METHODS The 18 eyes of 12 patients affected by presumed diabetic vitreous-induced macular edema underwent biomicroscopy with a Goldmann contact lens, fluorescein angiography, and OCT. RESULTS OCT revealed two patterns of...

متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography Angiography as an Imaging Modality for Evaluation of Diabetic Macular Edema
359 Diabetic retinopathy remains a leading cause of blindness worldwide in patients aged 20–64 years.[1] Diabetic macular edema (DME) threating or involving the fovea is a common etiology for vision loss. Traditionally, treatment methods have been guided by contact and non‐contact slit lamp biomicroscopy, fluorescein angiography and fundus stereo photography. [1] Fluorescein angiography (FA) is...
متن کاملOptical coherence tomography in photodynamic therapy for subfoveal choroidal neovascularisation secondary to age related macular degeneration: a cross sectional study.
AIMS To introduce new terminology and validate its reliability for the analysis of optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans, compare clinical detection of cystoid macular oedema (CMO) and subretinal fluid (SRF) with OCT findings, and to study the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the foveal morphology. METHODS Patients with subfoveal, predominantly classic choroidal neovascularisation (...
متن کاملStudy of clinical significance of optical coherence tomography in diagnosis & management of diabetic macular edema
Background: 26 million people were estimated to be affected by diabetes in 2010 across the globe. Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the most important cause of visual impairment due to diabetic retinopathy. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive modality which produces cross-sectional or three-dimensional, high-resolution images of the retinal layers and quantitative assessment of r...
