IMAGING in AMD From Fluorescein Angiography To the Spectral Domain OCT G. Soubrane, MD,PhD, FEBO, FARVO Department of Ophthalmology University Paris 12-Creteil, FRANCE
Diagnosis of CNV: Gold standard Leakage through abnormal endothelium and CNV Staining of additional tissue or of RPE Evaluation of inner (vessels) and outer (RPE) retinal barriers Diffusible molecule through choriocapillaris Basis for staging of the disease Age Related Maculopathy vs Age related Macular Degeneration Geographic Atrophy vs Choroidal New Vessels FLUORESCEIN ANGIOGRAPHY

Choroidal New Vessels • LES 2 TYPES DE C Pre epithelial classic Sub epithelial occult
FA CLASSIFICATION • Age Related Maculopathy (ARM) • RPE changes : hyper or hypopigmentation • Drusen : hard, soft, calcified, reticular pseudo-drusen • Age related Macular Degeneration (AMD) • Atrophy • Choroidal new vessels (CNV) : • classic , • occult (MPS type II), • PED serous, fibrovascular ( MPS type I)
Normal choroidal circulation ARM : Distinction of various material AMD : Dynamic visualisation of Abnormal network and new-vessels Conversion of occult CNV into sub-epithelial CNV Visualization of CNV inside a PED Diagnosis of polypoidal vasculopathy and chorioretinal anastomosis INDOCYANIN GREEN ANGIOGRAPHY

Sub-epithelial occult CNV • Progressing sub-epithelial occult CNV: • AF : discreteabnormalities without diffusion • ICG : early filling of the central feeder vessel perfusing a neovascular network • within a dark area • late staining of a persistent central plaque

Fibro vascular PED PED Occult
Natural history Sub-epithelial CNV Proliferation of pre-epithelial classic new vessels In 42%, in 2 to 3 years Angiographies : irreplaceable tools • AF : visualization of pre-epithelial classic new vessels • ICG : identification of sub-epithelial occult new vessels
Chorioretinal anastomosis • Severe form of neovascularization • Frequency 15% of AMD (4.5% for Japanese*) 30% of vascularized PED Prognosis for second eye * Am J Ophthalmol. 2007
Idiopathic polypoidal vasculopathy Biomicroscopy
ICG CLASSIFICATION • Age Related Maculopathy (ARM) • RPE changes : hyper or hypopigmentation • Drusen : hard, soft, (reticular pseudo drusen) • Age related Macular Degeneration (AMD) • Atrophy • Choroidal new vessels (CNV) : • Sub epithelial occult with RPE elevation • Vascularized PED • Ingrowth of classic pre epithelial • Fibrovascular PED • CRA, Polyps
