In the modern era, patients often resort to internet for answers their health-related concerns, and clinics face challenges providing timely response patient concerns. This has led a need investigate capabilities of AI chatbots ophthalmic diagnosis triage. this in silico study, 80 simulated complaints ophthalmology with varying urgency levels clinical descriptors were entered into both ChatGPT Bard systematic 3-step submission process asking triage, diagnose, evaluate urgency. Three...
Purpose: To determine the prevalence of subclinical choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in fellow eyes patients with unilateral exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and to quantify choriocapillaris nonperfusion adjacent CNV. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all AMD who underwent OCTA identified AMD. determined presence CNV on custom en face slabs outer retina confirmed cross-sectional scans. Two graders quantified percent...
To determine the ability of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to detect choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in pseudohypopyon stage adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy.Prospective case series eight consecutive patients with dystrophy at least one eye (a total 14 eyes). Patients were assessed spectral domain OCT, flourescein angiography, and OCTA. Main outcome measures presence or absence CNV any unifying patterns that could be identified on OCTA for dystrophy.One...
<h3>Purpose</h3> To evaluate the imaging characteristics of macular neovascular pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs) and their response to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy. <h3>Methods</h3> Patients with exudative age-related degeneration (AMD), idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy, presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS) central serous retinopathy (CSR) neovascularisation (CNV) were included in study. A retrospective chart review 72 eyes 64 patients was...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To quantitatively evaluate the change in pigment epithelial detachment (PED) morphology on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) 18 months after transition to intravitreal aflibercept patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) PED recalcitrant monthly bevacizumab or ranibizumab. PATIENTS METHODS: Retrospective case series examining AMD who had a persistent fibrovascular serous SD-OCT. volume was calculated by manually outlining...
Background/aims Retinal microvascular ischaemia may produce localised middle retinal disruption with corresponding scotoma, a phenomenon termed paracentral acute maculopathy (PAMM). Small chronic atrophic lesions ischaemic perivascular (RIPLs) appear qualitatively similar to PAMM and have recently been hypothesised result specifically from PAMM. However, no studies quantitatively demonstrated an origin of RIPLs. We investigated the pathophysiology RIPLs their relationship swept-source...
To report optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings pre- and post-thermal laser therapy of a rare, asymptomatic, unilateral, isolated retinal hemangioblastoma.
To present a case report in which fundus autofluorescence (FAF) helped to diagnose and monitor the clinical course of patient diagnosed with punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC).Retrospective chart review data.FAF showed multiple hypoautofluorescent spots posterior pole.It also an area hypoautofluorescence surrounded by ring hyperautofluorescence, corresponded larger lesion seen clinically. As disease became inactive, number decreased. The rim hyperautofluorescence surrounding macular...
Retinal artery occlusion can be the first indicator of a significant cardiovascular disorder and need for treatment. We present case 69-year-old man with cilioretinal retinal ischemia. imaging, in particular fundus autofluorescence, highlighted an intraluminal hyperautofluorescent lesion which led to diagnosis emboli. Subsequently severe, previously undiagnosed carotid occlusive disease was discovered. The patient underwent prompt endarterectomy.
Purpose:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). Standard care for patients with DM an annual eye examination or retinal imaging to assess DR, the latter which may be completed through telemedicine approaches. One significant issue poor-quality images that prevent adequate screening and are thus ungradable. We used artificial intelligence enable point-of-care (at time imaging) identification ungradable in DR program.Methods:Nonmydriatic were...
Machine teaching, a machine learning subfield, may allow for rapid development of artificial intelligence systems able to automatically identify emerging ocular biomarkers from small imaging datasets. We sought use teaching retinal ischemic perivascular lesions (RIPLs) and subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDDs), two cardiovascular disease. IRB approval was obtained. Four datasets SD-OCT B-scans were used train test distinct automated systems, one identifying RIPLs the other SDDs. An...
To evaluate the quantitative and topographic relationship between reticular pseudodrusen (RPD) on infrared reflectance (IR) subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD) en face volumetric spectral domain optical coherence tomography.Reticular were marked IR images by a masked observer. Subretinal visualized sections of tomography below external limiting membrane identified semiautomated technique. Control RPD lesions generated in random distribution for each image. Binary maps control experimental...
