Enhancing Interpretation of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Project: Research project

Project Details

Description

OCTA is poised to be a useful diagnostic tool for AMD. The current challenge with OCTA is that the images can be difficult to interpret without proper experience. In AMD, CNV and choroidal vessels in areas of GA take on similar appearances on OCTA, presenting the opportunity for misinterpretation. The project will result in a novel validated algorithm towards the correct interpretation of OCTA images in cases with AMD. Ultimately, since OCTA is a new technology, it is imperative that steps be taken to promote correct interpretation of images.
