Variability and Repeatability of Quantitative, Fourier Domain-OCT Doppler Blood Flow in Young and Elderly Healthy Subjects
The purpose of this study was to determine the within-session variability and between-session repeatability of spectral Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (Doppler FD-OCT) Doppler retinal blood flow measurements in young, and elderly subjects. Methods: Doppler FD-OCT blood flow was measured using the RTVue system (Optovue Inc., USA). One eye of each of 20 healthy young (24.7 ± 2.7 years) and 16 healthy elderly (64.6 ± 5.1 years) subjects was randomly selected and the pupil was dilated. The double circular scanning pattern of the RTVue was employed. Six Doppler FD-OCT measurements (i.e. each separate measurement comprising an upper, and ...
