  • Description: [...]the precise location of the pathology can be visualized by evaluating the appropriate layer. [...]the OCTA provides both structural and functional (i.e., blood flow) analysis in a single instrument. Evaluating OCTA Unlike traditional fluorescein angiography (FA), which remains the gold standard for the detection of choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM), as well as neovascularization of the disc or elsewhere, OCTA is non-invasive and easier to obtain. Because FAs are invasive, time consuming, and relatively expensive, they are not always the ideal techniques to use on a daily basis or in a busy clinic. OCT confirmed flat maculae OU with no evidence of edema (Figures 7A,B), ruling out diabetic macula edema (DME) as the cause for the vision reduction OD. [...]an OCTA and traditional FA were scheduled to evaluate the cause of the reduced acuity OD.
