OCT angiography provides noninvasive close-up viewing of retinal vasculature

Over the past 20 years, OCT has developed rapidly as a noninvasive method of retinal imaging. OCT angiography, or OCTA, is the latest evolution of this technology, allowing extreme close-up imaging of the retinal vasculature for assessing retinal vascular diseases, and holds potential for guiding treatment decisions and monitoring patient responses to therapy.“The huge progress consists in having both functional and morphological assessment from a single dye-less examination. The rapid and noninvasive nature of the OCTA allows an easier follow-up of morphological and functional changes in prolonged, repetitive and even (Read more...)
