Abstract
in English, German

OCT angiography provides a combination of vascular and structural information. In contrast to conventional fluorescein angiography, there is no need for dye injection to give an image of choroidal neovascularisation. Although there is currently no classification of OCT angiography, different neovascular patterns can be observed, with criteria for activity. In the future, OCT angiography may help us to understand pathophysiological mechanisms and to develop therapeutic strategies.

Die OCT-Angiografie bietet eine Kombination aus vaskulärer und struktureller Information und kann im Gegensatz zur konventionellen Fluoresceinangiografie nichtinvasiv und ohne Farbstoff choroidale Neovaskularisationen darstellen. Derzeit existiert noch keine gültige OCT-angiografische Klassifikation der AMD, obwohl verschiedene Muster und Aktivitätskriterien von Neovaskularisationen beobachtet werden konnten. Die OCT-Angiografie könnte so in Zukunft zu einem besseren Verständnis pathophysiologischer Mechanismen und therapeutischer Strategien beitragen.
