Abstract
Standard 7-field 30° fluorescein angiography (FA) is the historical gold standard for the diagnosis and monitoring of many retinal diseases. In focal macular diseases, such as pseudophakic cystoid macular edema, age-related macular degeneration, myopic degeneration, and other causes of posterior pole choroidal neovascularization, 30° angiography with or without sweeps will often determine the diagnosis. However, there are several retinal diseases, including inflammatory eye disease, retinal vascular disease, and peripheral retinal lesions, that may be more optimally assessed with ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography (UWFFA), which images 200° of retina.
