Peripheral retinal ischaemia, as evaluated by ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography, is associated with diabetic macular oedema

Abstract: PurposeTo determine the relationship between retinal ischaemia and the presence of macular oedema (DMO) in patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) using ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography (UWFA) imaging.MethodsA retrospective review of 122 eyes of 70 treatment-naïve diabetic patients who underwent diagnostic UWFA using the Optos 200Tx imaging system. Two independent, masked graders quantified the area of retinal ischaemia. Based on clinical examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT), each patient … Show more

“…Significant advances have been made in recent years with the release non-contact ultrawidefield imaging systems such as the Optos 200 Tx system (Optos plc., Scotland) [47][48][49]. This system uses an SLO with two wavelengths of laser light [green (532 nm) and red (633 nm)] to recreate a composite color image of the posterior segment.…”

“…For example, the use of filters allows ultrawidefield autofluorescence and angiographic imaging [48,50]. Ultrawidefield autofluorescence imaging may be of particular use for detection of degenerative changes of the peripheral retina in patients with AMD [51].…”

“…Peripheral Advancing the Detection and Management of Diabetic Retinopathy with Ultra-widefield Retinal Imaging ischemia, detected on UWF FA, has been strongly correlated with DME in treatment-naïve patients. 20 Other investigators have proposed a new ischemic index based on UWF findings. This work established the relationship between peripheral nonperfusion, severity of DR, and recalcitrant macular edema, while suggesting that areas of untreated peripheral nonperfusion may be the source of mediators of ischemia and disease progression.…”

“…12 The degree of peripheral nonperfusion has also been linked to increased diabetic macular edema (DME) in treatment-naïve patients with diabetic retinopathy, 13 as well as more recalcitrant DME, as evidenced by a greater number of macular photocoagulation treatments and less reduction in central macular thickness on optical coherence tomography (OCT). 14 …”
