Need for Quantitative Measurement Methods for Posterior Uveitis: Comparison of Dual FA/ICGA Angiography, EDI-OCT Choroidal Thickness and SUN Vitreous Haze Evaluation in Stromal Choroiditis.

CONCLUSION: Dual FA/ICGA scoring showed the diverse disease patterns of BRC and VKH; both the retina and choroid were involved at onset in BRC, whereas VKH was a pure choroidal disease with later spillover into the retina. Dual FA/ICGA allowed for the precise measurement of inflammation at onset and upon follow-up. EDI-OCT CT responded to therapy in both diseases but was found to be of limited use in this early/subacute disease phase because it lacked sensitivity to detect subclinical recurrences and was therefore only useful for long-term follow-up. Vitreous haze was low in both entities and thus useless as an inflammatory parameter. PMID: 29669371 [PubMed - in process]
