Stepwise approach for fundus imaging in the diagnosis and management of posterior uveitis

An array of retinochoroid imaging modalities aid in comprehensive evaluation of the immunopathological changes in the retina and choroid, forming the core component for the diagnosis and management of inflammatory disorders such as uveitis. The recent technological breakthroughs have led to the development of imaging platforms that can evaluate the layers of retina and choroid and the structural and functional alteration in these tissues. Ophthalmologists heavily rely on imaging modalities such as dye-based angiographies such as fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography, optical coherence tomography, fundus autofluorescence, as well as dye-less angiography such as optical coherence tomography angiography for establishing a precise diagnosis and understanding the pathophysiology of the diseases.
