Abstract
Optical coherence tomography-angiography is a modern noninvasive method of 3D imaging and quantitative analysis of the retinal and choroidal microvasculature. It allows detecting manifestation and progression of diabetic retinopathy, planning treatment and evaluating its results.Optical coherence tomography angiography expands our understanding of microvascular changes in retinal vascular plexuses at different disease stages and deepens the understanding of its pathogenesis.
