Abstract

PurposeTo present stereo optical coherence tomography angiography (SD OCT‐A) images of patients with different macular pathologies.MethodsA series of patients with macular pathologies underwent OCT‐A imaging with the Heidelberg Engineering SPECTRALIS OCT2 device. In addition, these patients underwent OCT B and C scans, color fundus photographies and fluorescein and ICG angiographies. The OCT‐A images were then computerized in a manner to give stereo images. Slabs of different thicknesses were analyzed and are presented.ResultsThirty seven eyes with different macular diseases (10 exsudative AMD, 16 diabetic retinopathies, 10 retinal venous occlusions, 1 acute macular placoid pigmented epitheliopathy) were included and analyzed.Stereo OCT‐A allowed to show the vascular abnormality and its impact on the retina and the choroid. The swelling of the retina was highlighted in stereo viewing.ConclusionsStereo OCT‐A is a new additive technique to OCT imaging. It gives a global assessment of the central retina pathology highlighting retinal swelling.This technique needs perfect segmentation to achieve good stereo images and improvements are currently needed.
