Nowadays, among the main causes of blindness in developed countries are age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and the diabetic macular edema (DME). Both diseases present, as a common symptom, the appearance of cystoid fluid regions inside the retinal layers. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) image modality was one of the main medical imaging techniques for the early diagnosis and monitoring of AMD and DME via this intraretinal fluid detection and characterization.

In only a short period of time, the innovative procedure of OCT angiography has become an essential macula imaging technique. Now that it is routinely used in clinical practice, the investigation of retinal and choroidal circulation is non-invasive, which significantly changes the professional’s approach to patients. In this volume, retina specialists and renowned experts share their experience with OCT angiography. They have included numerous color images and presented current ideas to form a base for further research and discussion. This book provides retina specialists, ophthalmologists, and researchers with a first glance at original research and clinical reports on this new methodology.

OCT provided a great advantage over other diagnostic modalities, as it could noninvasively provide tomographic images of the retina of a living eye. As a result, a number of new findings in retinal diseases were made using the time-domain OCT. OCT has now become an essential medical equipment OCT has now become an essential medical equipment in ophthalmic care and quality textbooks describing the functionality of OCT are very important in the education of young ophthalmologists and eye care personnel. In this book are chosen high quality OCT images of rather common diseases as well as images of several rare diseases.
