Analysis of morphological features and vascular layers of choroid in diabetic retinopathy using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography.

IMPORTANCE Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is characterized by microaneurysms, capillary nonperfusion, and ischemia within the retina, ultimately leading to neovascularization and/or macular edema. Evidence suggests that choroidal angiopathy may coexist with retinal vascular damage. Recent advances in spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) permit an efficient visualization of the choro...

Evaluation of Normal Choroidal Thickness in Rasht Using SD-OCT EDI Imaging

Purpose: To measure choroidal thickness in normal subjects, using optical coherent tomography (OCT) in Rasht. Methods: Normal subjects older than 20 years, living in Rasht, were selected through systematic random sampling by using the city telephone directory. The subjects underwent comprehensive eye examinations for inclusion in the study. Then, choroidal thickness was measured in both eyes by...

Enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography of choroidal osteoma with secondary neovascular membranes: report of two cases Tomografia de coerência óptica com imagem profunda aprimorada de osteoma de coroide com membrana neovascular secundária: relato de 2 casos

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) plays an instrumental role in the diagnosis and follow-up of several retinal and choroidal diseases such as macular degeneration, vascular occlusion, and inflammation. Recently, OCT studies of intraocular tumors evaluated the intrinsic optical characteristics of choroidal tumors imaged using enhanced depth imaging OCT (EDI-OCT). Among body structures, the chor...

Automated segmentation and characterization of choroidal vessels in high-penetration optical coherence tomography.

An automated choroidal vessel segmentation and quantification method for high-penetration optical coherence tomography (OCT) was developed for advanced visualization and evaluation of the choroidal vasculature. This method uses scattering OCT volumes for the segmentation of choroidal vessels by using a multi-scale adaptive threshold. The segmented choroidal vessels are then processed by multi-s...

Peripapillary Intrachoroidal Cavitation and Optic Pit in a Case of High Myopia and Glaucoma

Purpose: To report a case of peripapillary intrachoroidal cavitation (choroidal schisis) and optic pit in a case of high myopia and open-angle glaucoma. Case report: A 30-year-old high myopic man was referred to our clinic for presumed peripapillary choroidal tumors. In funduscopy, there were two yellow-orange and slightly elevated peripapillary lesions in both eyes with indistinct margins. A s...
