Differential artery-vein analysis in quantitative retinal imaging: a review

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: Quantitative retinal imaging is essential for eye disease detection, staging classification, and treatment assessment. It is known that different eye diseases or severity stages can affect the artery and vein systems in different ways. Therefore, differential artery-vein (AV) analysis can improve the performance of quantitative retinal imaging. In this article, we provide a brief summary of technical rationales and clinical applications of differential AV analysis in fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography (OCTA).
