Optical coherence tomography-angiography for monitoring neovascularisations in macular telangiectasia type 2

British Journal of Ophthalmology Jun 11, 2020

Tzaridis S, Hess K, Friedlander M, et al. - This study was undertaken to investigate the usefulness of optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCT-A) for monitoring activity, progression and response to therapy of neovascularisations (NVs) secondary to macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel). A retrospective analysis was designed to examine eyes with NVs secondary to MacTel over a period of ≥8 months. Researchers included a sum of 19 eyes from 17 patients in this study. The outcomes demonstrate that OCT-A represents a beneficial imaging modality for monitoring NV-progression and treatment impacts in MacTel. In order to prevent NV-progression and subsequent functional loss in neovascular MacTel, they indicate its benefits over conventional B-scan OCT imaging, including an earlier detection of NV-progression, and propose an adjustment of the current OCT-controlled pro-re-nata treatment regime.
