Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Features of Diabetic Retinopathy

Abstract: Purpose To describe the optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography features of diabetic retinopathy Methods Using a 70kHz OCT and the split-spectrum amplitude decorrelation angiography (SSADA) algorithm, 6 × 6 mm 3-dimensional angiograms of the macula of 4 patients with diabetic retinopathy were obtained and compared with fluorescein angiography (FA) for features catalogued by the Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study. Results OCT angiography detected enlargement and distortion of the foveal av… Show more

“…The reason for this discrepancy may be the low blood flow through the microaneurysms or flow of the serum without morphotic elements, which makes detecting them with decorelation method impossible. Numbers of microanerusyms lower than expected while using OCTA examinations were also reported by other authors [6,8,9].…”

“…FA holds an evident advantage in visualizing capillary leaks and microanuerysmal leakiness [6,7]. This is of significance because these signs determine the decision to introduce focal laser therapy or anti-VEGF treatment.…”

“…As per Laplace law, the tension in the vessel wall resisting distension pressure is inversely proportional to the radius of the vessel. The vessel wall tension required to counteract distending pressure is not achieved in a dilated vessel, hence there is a tendency towards dilatation with subsequent hyper perfusion [24]. In addition, several factors, namely, abnormal auto regulation of the retinal circulation [25], increased conductance as an auto regulatory response to retinal ischemia [26], endothelin-1 resistance, inhibition of calcium influx channel in smooth muscle cells and increased activity of nitric oxide synthase also lead to hyper perfusion.…”
