This study assessed the repeatability of flow signal voids (FSV) measurements of the choriocapillaris (CC) and choroid (CH) in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) using Swept-Source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA). The results showed that SS-OCTA offers good repeatability for quantifying macular FSV in both CSCR eyes and fellow eyes.
Purpose To assess the repeatability of flow signal voids (FSV) measurements of the choriocapillaris (CC) and choroid (CH) in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) by Swept-Source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA). Methods Cross-sectional study including 104 eyes of 52 patients with unilateral CSCR. Two consecutive macular 6x6 mm SS-OCTA scans (Plex Elite 9000; Zeiss, Dublin, CA) were obtained from the affected eyes with persistent subretinal fluid (SRF) (CSCR group) and the fellow unaffected eyes (control group). FSV area and the number of contours measurements were analyzed using three slabs: inner CC, outer CC and CH. The repeatability of the measurements was assessed with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and coefficients of variation (CV). Results In the CSCR group, ICCs for the FSV area in the three slabs were all >= 0.859, observing higher values for the outer CC and the CH (0.959 and 0.964) than for the inner CC (0.859). Similar ICC values were obtained for the FSV area in control eyes, observing the highest values for the outer CC (0.949), followed by the CH (0.932) and inner CC (0.844). Regarding the FSV number of contours measurements, ICCs were higher for the outer CC and CH (0.949 and 0.932) than for inner CC (0.844). CV for the FSV area was 4.7%, 3.8% and 8.6% in the CSCR eyes and 4.8%, 3.9% and 9.3% in the control group for the inner CC, outer CC and CH respectively. Conclusion SS-OCTA offers good repeatability to quantify macular FSV in CSCR eyes and fellow eyes
