Abstract

While dye-based angiography has historically served as the gold standard of imaging modalities in the diagnosis of choroidal neovascularization (CNV), the introduction of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has clearly demonstrated the ability to delineate neovascular membranes in exudative maculopathies of various non-age-related macular degeneration (AMD) etiologies, without introducing patients to the potential morbidities associated with dye-based testing. The cases presented here further corroborate that which has been suggested in recently published studies: OCTA has the ability to diagnose CNV even when fluorescein angiography (FA) may fail to do so definitively, and can help guide treatment as well.
