      OCT Hyperreflective Retinal Foci in Diabetic Retinopathy: A Semi-Automatic Detection Comparative Study
      Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows us to identify, into retinal layers, new morphological entities, which can be considered clinical biomarkers of retinal diseases. According to the literature, solitary, small (30 m), medium level hyperreflective (similar to retinal fiber layer) retinal foci (HRF) may represent aggregates of activated microglial cells and an in vivo biomarker of retinal inflammation. The identification and quantification of this imaging biomarker allows for estimating the level ...

      Structural and microvascular changes of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer in Von Hippel–Lindau disease: an OCT and OCT angiography study
      Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an autosomal dominant genetic disease caused by VHL gene mutation. Retinal hemangioblastomas (RH) are vascularized tumors and represent the main ocular manifestation of the disease. Histopathologically, RH are composed of capillary vessels and stromal cells, the neoplastic population of the lesion. The origin of these stromal cells remains controversial, even if they are hypothesized to be glial cells. The aim of the present study was ...
