Comparison between graders in detection of diabetic neovascularization with swept source OCT angiography and fluorescein angiography
American Journal of Ophthalmology Dec 15, 2020
Al-khersan H, Russell JF, Lazzarini TA, et al. - In this retrospective study involving 24 patients (47 eyes), researchers sought to compare the ability of ophthalmologists to identify neovascularization (NV) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) utilizing swept source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) and fluorescein angiography (FA). Eyes with PDR or severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy and high suspicion of NV based on clinical examination were imaged utilizing SS-OCTA and FA at the same visit. Ophthalmologists across training levels have been able to identify diabetic NV with similar precision using SS-OCTA and FA. SS-OCTA could be a suitable stand-alone modality for diagnosing diabetic NV based on these findings.
