    OCT-Angiography in Retinal Diseases Made Incredibly Simple For Post Graduates

    Introduction: Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) has emerged as a novel imaging technique for visualizing the retinal and choroidal microvasculature at the macula and optic disc.1 It provides in vivo 3D vascular information by analyzing the movement of flowing red blood cells and thereby enabling the visualization and quantification of functional vessel networks within microcirculatory tissue beds in a non-invasive manner without the use of dye injection.2 Understanding the anatomy of retinal and choroidal microvasculature (figure 1): Retinal microvasculature: Studies have identified 4 retinal vascular capillary networks at the macula which are broadly grouped into 2 vascular plexuses; superficial and deep.3 The superficial vascular plexus (SVP) consists of the superficial capillary plexus and radial peripapillary capillary plexus. The former is located in the ganglion cell layer and the latter in the retinal nerve fibre layer. The SVP receives its blood supply from the c
