Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical use of ultra-widefield angiography (UWFA) in uveitis.
Materials And Methods: We showed the UWFA and traditional 55° fluorescein angiography (FA) of four cases with Eales' disease, idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysms, and neuroretinitis syndrome, Behçet's disease, and idiopathic panuveitis in a tertiary medical center. Comparison of UWFA with traditional 55°FA in the diagnosis and management of uveitis and review of the literature is also presented.
Results: Ultra-widefield FA revealed far-peripheral vascular imaging. This information would not have been easily obtained from traditional FA. With more information of the peripheral retina, it may facilitate appropriate diagnosis and monitoring, and the management may be revised.
Conclusion: University of Western Australia played an important role to confirm the diagnosis of uveitis and to determine the corresponding treatment.

Quantitative analysis of choroidal vascular structures and anatomical changes in pachychoroid spectrum diseases using ultra-widefield SS-OCTA.
Sci Rep
January 2025
The Department of Ophthalmology, General Hospital of Central Theater Command, No. 627 Wuluo Road, Wuchang District, Wuhan, 430000, Hubei, China.
This study used ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (UWF SS-OCTA) to analyze and compare choroidal blood flow and anatomical changes in eyes affected by central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), pachychoroid neovasculopathy (PNV), and uncomplicated pachychoroid (UCP). The findings revealed distribution patterns of vortex veins across the three patient groups and provided initial findings insights into the origin of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in PNV. A total of 44 patients with CSC, 38 with PNV, and 46 with UCP were included in the analysis.

Purpose: To describe a new feature in pathologic myopia: perivascular patchy chorioretinal atrophy (PVCA) DESIGN: Cross-sectional study METHODS: 604 eyes of 312 highly myopic patients followed at Strasbourg University Hospitals were reviewed for the presence of PVCA lesions. Demographic, clinical, and paraclinical data (ultra-widefield retinography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography images) were analyzed. Controls were matched for age, sex, and axial length (AL).

Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to explore how demographic factors and measurements of nonperfusion (NP) and neovascularization (NV) on ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography relate to intravitreal injections (IVIs) and panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) treatment in diabetic patients.
- It included 363 diabetic patients treated at the University of Michigan, analyzing the effectiveness of these treatments based on retinal image data from 2009 to 2018 while excluding those with previous PRP treatment or poor image quality.
- Results revealed that higher NP and NV areas were associated with increased IVIs and PRP treatments, and type 2 diabetes was linked to a greater risk of progression in diabetic retinopathy compared to type 1

Purpose: To investigate retinal vascular abnormalities in the affected and fellow eyes of children with Coats' disease using Optos® ultra-widefield fundus fluorescein angiography (UWFFA) and compare the peripheral vascular abnormalities between fellow eyes and normal control eyes.
Methods: Children diagnosed with Coats' disease who underwent UWFFA were retrospectively reviewed. Healthy eyes with complete UWFFA data were selected as controls.

Background: This study was to evaluate the features of choroidal Sattler's and Haller's layer (CSHL) vessels in adults and explore its relationship with factors such as age, axial length (AL) and body mass index (BMI) by using ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (ultra-widefield SS-OCTA).
Methods: 24mm × 20mm fovea centered rectangular SS-OCTA scans were acquired. They were divided into 9 identical grids, with each equal size of 8 mm × 6.
