OCT angiography and its retinal biomarkers [Invited].

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a high-resolution, depth-resolved imaging modality with important applications in ophthalmic practice. An extension of structural OCT, OCTA enables non-invasive, high-contrast imaging of retinal and choroidal vasculature that are amenable to quantification. As such, OCTA offers the capability to identify and characterize biomarkers important for clinical practice and therapeutic research. Here, we review new methods for analyzing biomarkers and discuss new insights provided by OCTA.
