Description

Retinal vasculitis inflames the blood vessels at the back of the eye, and the standard way to see it, fluorescein angiography, needs an injected dye. Harrigill, Nguyen, and Noori test a dye-free alternative built from swept-source OCT angiography.

Their method stitches five overlapping scans into a wide montage reaching past the central retina into the near periphery, and overlays a thickness map to expose swelling around vessels. In 30 eyes of 16 patients, the montage showed that perivascular thickening both centrally and peripherally, and its findings tracked the dye-based gold standard across repeat visits. The authors present the technique as a noninvasive partner to angiography for diagnosing the disease and following it over time.
