Evaluation of change in the vascular density of choriocapillaris on optical coherence tomography angiography in eyes with serpiginous choroiditis
Purpose: Serpiginous choroiditis (SC) is primarily an inflammation of choriocapillaris leading to nonperfusion. A quantitative assessment of choriocapillaris perfusion can be done by measuring the flow-density by OCT-Angiography (OCTA). This study measures a change in the flow-density of choriocapillaris with the resolution of inflammation. Methods: The OCTA images of a choriocapillaris slab of 30 eyes with active SC were subjected to binarization and vessel density was measured at baseline and final visits and compared. Results: Upon comparing the vessel density of the affected areas by OCTA of choriocapillaris-slab at baseline and final visits, there was statistically significant ( P < 0.0001 ...
