THE APPLICATION OF OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY IN RETINAL PATHOLOGY

N. V. Pasechnikova (Odessa, Ukraine), Taras Gout, Irina Gout (London, United Kingdom)

In this review, we describe the main principle of three dimensional Optical Coherence Tomography and its application as a powerful diagnostic procedure in retinal pathologies, such as age related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathies, central serous chorioretinopathy, epiretinal membrane and macular hole.
