Macula Measurement and monitoring of retinal thickness is probably the most frequently used application of OCT in retinal disease, especially AMD, macular edema, diabetic retinopathy, and epiretinal membrane. The Stratus OCT system can be used to calculate a map of macular thickness from 6 radial B-scans crossing at the fovea. The average thickness in 9 subfields centered on the fovea is calculated by interpolating data from these scans. Total macular volume is calculated in a similar way (Figure 6).

Once again, segmentation techniques allow correlation of RPE changes with changes of the overlying photoreceptor layer (Figure 16). These relationships can be projected onto SVP images and correlated with fluorescein angiography or microperimetry for long-term follow-up (Figure 3). Comparative Analysis Small foci of PED, CNV, or subretinal fluid are also more easily detected (Stopa 2007 22).
