Detection and Differentiation of Intraretinal Hemorrhage in Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to classify and detect intraretinal hemorrhage (IRH) in spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods : Initially the presentation of IRH in BRVO-patients in SD-OCT was described by one reader comparing color-fundus (CF) and SD-OCT using dedicated software. Based on these established characteristics, the presence and the severity of IRH in SD-OCT and CF were assessed by two other masked readers and the inter-device and the inter-observer agreement were evaluated. Further the area of IRH was compared. Results : About 895 single B-scans of 24 eyes were analyzed. About 61% of SD-OCT scans and 46 ...
