High-speed Optical Coherence Tomography for Imaging Anterior Chamber inflammatory Reaction in Uveitis: Clinical Correlation and Grading

摘要

PURPOSE: To evaluate the anterior chamber (AC) inflammatory reaction by anterior segment high-speed optical coherence tomography (OCT).DESIGN: A prospective, nonrandomized, observational case series.METHODS: Sixty'two eyes of 45 patients were studied for AC reaction clinically and by anterior segment OCT. Hyperreflective spots suggesting the presence of cells in the AC from the OCT images were counted manually and by a custom made automated software using MATLAB (Mathworks, Natick, Massachusetts, USA) and correlated with clinical grading of AC cells using Standardization of Uveitis Nomenclature criteria
