What is an Angio-OCT examination?
Angio-OCT is a safe and non-invasive method of assessing the retinal vasculature and microcirculation using optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging. The test is used in the diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, among others. It makes it possible to detect changes in the small vessels in the early stages of the disease.
The test does not require the administration of contrast.
