Comparison Between Optical Coherence Tomography B-scan and En Face Imaging for the Diagnosis of Early Macular Atrophy in Age-Related Macular Degeneration
This report demonstrates the benefits of using en face OCT imaging to identify cRORA lesions and highlights the need to acquire dense raster B-scans with the grading neighboring B-scans when identifying iRORA lesions to assess the full extent of the iRORA lesions in the nonhorizontal dimension. Although neighboring B-scans were inspected, 27.5% of iRORA lesions were actually part of larger cRORA lesions when graded using an en face strategy.
