Comparison of Central Macular Fluid Volume With Central Subfield Thickness in Patients With Diabetic Macular Edema Using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography

Importance: Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the predominant cause of visual impairment in patients with type 1 or 2 diabetes. Automated fluid volume measurements using optical coherence tomography (OCT) may improve the diagnostic accuracy of DME screening. Objective: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of an automated central macular fluid volume (CMFV) quantification using OCT for DME. Design, setting, and participants: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted at a tertiary academic center among 215 patients with diabetes (1 eye each) enrolled from January 26, 2015, to December 23, 2019. All participants underwent comprehensive examinations, 6 × 6-mm macular structural OCT horizontal raster ...
