    Insights in the Latest Diagnostic Innovations (Multimodality Approach, Role of OCTA in Microvascular Structure etc.)

    The recent introduction of OCT angiography (OCTA) has allowed clinicians to noninvasively image the microvasculature of the optic nerve head, retina, and choroid and evaluate the perfusion status of these structures. Vessel density (VD) assessed by OCTA may be a useful method for diagnosing glaucoma and monitoring glaucomatous progression. VD assessment showed good diagnostic performance, reproducibility and repeatability, which enhances reliability in progression monitoring. In addition, circum...
    The recent introduction of OCT angiography (OCTA) has allowed clinicians to noninvasively image the microvasculature of the optic nerve head, retina, and choroid and evaluate the perfusion status of these structures. Vessel density (VD) assessed by OCTA may be a useful method for diagnosing glaucoma and monitoring glaucomatous progression. VD assessment showed good diagnostic performance, reproducibility and repeatability, which enhances reliability in progression monitoring. In addition, circumpapillary and macular VD are less likely to reach the measurement floor than thickness parameters in advanced glaucoma, suggesting that VD assessment may be more useful than retinal nerve fiber layer or macular ganglion cell layer measurements for detecting glaucomatous progression in advanced stages.
