  Explore LWW Online Jul 24 2019 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: To investigate the imaging characteristics of early Type 3 neovascularization and propose a new pathophysiologic sequence for early disease. Methods: Patients were evaluated with a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination to include fundus photography, optical coherence tomography , optical coherence tomography angiography, fluorescein angiography, and volume-rendered optical coherence tomography angiography. Relevant literature was also reviewed. Results: There were 10 eyes of 9 patients who had a mean age of 87 (range 79–93) years and 7 were women. The patients were seen to have distributed areas of cystoid macular edema, not necessarily contiguous with areas of fluorescein or optical coherence tomography angiographic ...

  Explore LWW Online Jul 6 2019 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: To characterize structural and angiographic findings in macular telangiectasia Type 2 (MacTel 2) and examine associations with visual acuity. Methods: MacTel 2 patients with complete ophthalmologic examination, including fundus photography, autofluorescence, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, and projection-resolved optical coherence tomography angiography , were retrospectively evaluated. Results: There were 43 eyes of 22 patients with a mean age 63.9 (±10.3) years. Six patients had diabetes. Twenty-one eyes (48.8%) had retinal–choroidal anastomoses (RCAs) without any evidence of neovascularization extending laterally in a plane above or below the retinal pigment epithelium. None of the eyes had hemorrhage, lipid, or ...

  Explore LWW Online May 25 2017 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: To investigate the structural optical coherence tomography and related microvascular flow characteristics in eyes with retinal vasculitis. Methods: Regions involved with perivascular infiltration in eyes with retinal vasculitis, but no evidence of large vessel occlusion were evaluated with optical coherence tomography (OCT), OCT angiography, and fluorescein angiography. Results: Ten eyes of 5 patients with a variety of etiologies of retinal vasculitis were evaluated. These patients did not have either cotton wool spots or deeper placoid areas of retinal ischemia. Around large vessels there was perivascular infiltration with leakage and staining seen during fluorescein angiography. Structural OCT showed slight thickening ...

  Explore ScienceDirect May 4 2017 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose To describe a method to obtain images of the choroid using conventional spectral-domain (SD) optical coherence tomography (OCT) and to evaluate choroidal thickness measurements using these images. Design Observational case series. Methods The images were obtained by positioning the SD OCT device close enough to the eye to obtain an inverted representation of the fundus in healthy volunteers who did not have pupillary dilation. Seven sections, each comprised of 100 averaged scans, were obtained within a 5- × 15-degree rectangle centered on the fovea. The choroidal thickness under the fovea in each image was measured by independent observers. Results The ...

9. Choroidal Findings in Eyes With Birdshot Chorioretinitis Using Enhanced-Depth Optical Coherence Tomography
  
  Explore IOVS Journal Sep 14 2016 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose : The purposes of this study were to describe choroidal findings observed using optical coherence tomography with enhanced depth imaging (EDI-OCT) in eyes with birdshot chorioretinitis (BSCR) and to test the hypothesis that these findings are related to participant demographics, clinical characteristics, and treatment. Methods : In a multicenter, cross-sectional study, 172 eyes of 86 individuals with BSCR underwent a standardized clinical evaluation, including defined protocols for EDI-OCT imaging, with macular and peripapillary volume scans. Choroidal findings were compared to demographic information, ophthalmic examination findings, and treatment history, using logistic regression models. EDI-OCT images were evaluated by two independent, masked graders ...

18. RefMoB, a Reflectivity Feature Model-Based Automated Method for Measuring Four Outer Retinal Hyperreflective Bands in Optical Coherence Tomography
  
  Explore IOVS Journal Jul 2 2015 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose. : To validate a model-driven method (RefMoB) of automatically describing the four outer retinal hyperreflective bands revealed by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT), for comparison with histology of normal macula; to report thickness and position of bands, particularly band 2 (ellipsoid zone [EZ], commonly called IS/OS). Methods. : Foveal and superior perifoveal scans of seven SDOCT volumes of five individuals aged 28 to 69 years with healthy maculas were used (seven eyes for validation, five eyes for measurement). RefMoB determines band thickness and position by a multistage procedure that models reflectivities as a summation of Gaussians. Band thickness and positions ...

  Explore LWW Online Mar 11 2015 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: To examine the colocalization error between the infrared reflectance (IR) scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) images of the Heidelberg Spectralis. Methods: The IR and corresponding horizontal raster SD-OCT images were compared in 10 healthy volunteers examined with 3 Heidelberg Spectralis + OCT instruments. The center points of retinal vessels selected by random uniform sampling in scanning laser ophthalmoscope-IR images were compared with colocalizing points in corresponding SD-OCT images by two masked readers.

20. TYPE 3 NEOVASCULARIZATION: Evolution, Association With Pigment Epithelial Detachment, and Treatment Response as Revealed by Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography
  
  Explore LWW Online Feb 5 2015 Ophthalmology
  
  Purpose: To demonstrate the evolution and treatment response of Type 3 neovascularization using spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 40 eyes treated with intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy for Type 3 neovascularization over a variable follow-up period. Results: In 17 eyes, spectral domain optical coherence tomography captured the development of Type 3 neovascularization from punctate hyperreflective foci that preceded any outer retinal defect. The more mature Type 3 lesions were associated with outer retinal disruption and adjacent cystoid macular edema. In addition, 37 of 40 Type 3 lesions (93%) were associated with an underlying pigment epithelial ...

  Importance The retinal vasculature is involved in many ocular diseases that cause visual loss. Although fluorescein angiography is the criterion standard for evaluating the retina vasculature, it has risks of adverse effects and known defects in imaging all the layers of the retinal vasculature. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography can image vessels based on flow characteristics and may provide improved information. Objective To investigate the ability of OCT angiography to image the vascular layers within the retina compared with conventional fluorescein angiography. Design, Setting, and Participants In this study, performed from March 14, 2014, through June 24, 2014, a total ...

  Explore JAMA Network Oct 14 2014 Ophthalmology
  
  Importance Macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel 2) is a rare disease in which abnormalities of the retinal vasculature play a key role. The vascular abnormalities are typically evaluated using fluorescein angiography, a modality with known defects in imaging the deeper layers of the retinal vasculature. Angiography based on optical coherence tomography can image vessels based on flow characteristics without dye injection and may provide improved information concerning the pathophysiology of MacTel 2. Objective To investigate MacTel 2 using optical coherence tomographic angiography. Design, Setting, and Participants Fourteen eyes of 7 patients with MacTel 2 were analyzed in a community-based retina ...
