Normative Profile of Choroidal Vortex Vein Drainage System Based on UWF SS-OCTA

New research recently published in Ophthalmology Science has established a normative profile of choroidal vortex vein drainage systems in a healthy Chinese population using ultra-widefield swept-source OCTA (UWF SS-OCTA). For the first time, the 5th and 95th percentile values of key choroidal parameters—including the choroidal vascularity index (CVI), choroidal vascular volume (CVV), and choroidal stromal volume (CSV)—have been reported for each quadrant of the vortex vein drainage system.

Regional Assessment of CVI Before DR Onset Detected by Full-range UWF OCTA

Research recently published in Frontiers in Medicine characterized the regional variations of choroidal vascularity index (CVI) in patients with pre- and early-stage of DR by using full-range ultra-widefield OCTA (UWF OCTA). CVI in the central region (0–1 mm) and four quadrants of the concentric rings with different ranges (1–3, 3–6, 6–9, 9–12, 12–15, 15–18 mm) were analyzed in four age-matched groups: no DM (NDM), no DR with early DM (EDM) and late DM (LDM), and mild–moderate non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (mNPDR). The results showed that the CVI was significantly lower in patients with mild NPDR for most of regions, especially for nasal and temporal periphery. Besides, a notable variance in CVI was observed, particularly in the temporal quadrant of the 15–18 mm range (T18) between the LDM and mNPDR groups indicating that choroidal vascular changes might already exist before DR onset. The CVI in the T18 region demonstrated superior diagnostic efficacy (AUC = 0.755), and when combined with those in other regions and clinical data, the AUC rose to 0.907. UWF-OCTA appeared to be a promising method to predict the onset of DR and promote the early diagnosis of DR.

Choroidal Vascular Alterations in Myopic Eyes Investigated by UWF OCTA

A recent study published in BMJ Open Ophthalmology evaluated choroidal vascular changes in younger patients with myopia using ultrawide-field (UWF) full-range swept-source OCTA (SS-OCTA). Choroidal vascular thickness (ChVT) and density (ChVD) were analyzed across 3×3 grids using built-in software.
