OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FEATURES OF CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION AND THEIR CORRELATION WITH AGE, GENDER, AND UNDERLYING DISEASE

Abstract

The age of the patient had a significant effect on the OCT appearance of the CNV, particularly the presence of a pitchfork sign, regardless of the underlying etiology. The absence of SRF was suggestive for a diagnosis of mCNVs. The presence of SRF and pigment epithelial detachment was suggestive for AMD-CNVs.
