International Conference on
Purpose:
Showing the clinic relevance for the ocular
professionals of this innovative technique, dye-less OCT-
Angiography, todiagnoseand follow up retinal and choroidall
vascular diseases. Methodology & Theoretical Orientation:
To get Angio-Oct, we have used the 3D Optical Coherence
Tomography DRI OCT Triton of TOPCON. OCT- Angiography
is a technique that allows us to follow-up vascular retinal
pathologies, without injecting any dye. In this way it is
possible to obtain information about the intravascular flow
of the different internal and external layers of the retina, as
well as the choroid using the same procedure as the capture
of an optical coherence tomography. Its ability to display
a detailed map, layer selective, of the capillary plexus
makes this technique to consolidate as a reference at
the diagnosis tests of pathologies. Clinic cases: Three clinical
cases will be reported showing different pathologies of
different patients with relevant vascular affection, to show
the performance of this new test. We report a case of
venous thrombosis combined with diabetic retinopathy,
another case of age-related macular degeneration, and
at last a case of glaucoma. Retinography images, optical
coherence tomographies and angiography-OCT (Figure 1)
will be shown from the three patients. Conclusion: The use
of OCT-Angiography for the diagnosis of retinal pathologies
is of high impact, its advantages over known techniques:
dye-less, non-invasive, layer selective, repeatability of the
test, rapid technique, more comfortable for the patient,
costs of follow-up study decrease, among others.
