Comparison of macular thickness in diabetic patients acquired from optical coherence tomography mode and optical coherence tomography angiography mode in Cirrus HD-OCT 5000
Improved fixation in OCTA compared with OCT was evident, likely because of the faster scanning speed and higher sampling density of OCTA. Macular thickness was found similar. There appears no requirement to obtain macular thickness measurements using a separate OCT mode. This approach can reduce patient chair time, improve patient comfort, and streamline the clinical workflow.
