Conclusions: In “treatment-resistant” patients receiving anti-VEGF therapy for neovascular age-related macular degeneration or diabetic macular edema, switching to IFI in a “real-world” TAE protocol led to statistically significant improvements in ...

Automatic detection and prediction of nAMD activity change in retinal OCT using Siamese networks and Wasserstein Distance for ordinality [PDF]
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is a leading cause of vision loss among older adults, where disease activity detection and progression prediction are critical for nAMD management in terms of timely drug administration and improving patient outcomes.

A Novel Ophthalmic Benchmark for Evaluating Multimodal Large Language Models with Fundus Photographs and OCT Images [PDF]
In recent years, large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable potential across various medical applications. Building on this foundation, multimodal large language models (MLLMs) integrate LLMs with visual models to process diverse inputs, including clinical data and medical images.

Nonperfused Retinal Capillaries -- A New Method Developed on OCT and OCTA [PDF]
To develop a new method to quantify nonperfused retinal capillaries (NPCs) by using co-registered optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA), and to evaluate NPCs in eyes with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Multiple consecutive 3x3-mm OCT/OCTA scans were obtained using a commercial device (Solix;

Multi-line Adaptive Perimetry (MAP): A New Procedure for Quantifying Visual Field Integrity for Rapid Assessment of Macular Diseases. [PDF]
PurposeIn order to monitor visual defects associated with macular degeneration (MD), we present a new psychophysical assessment called multiline adaptive perimetry (MAP) that measures visual field integrity by simultaneously estimating regions associated
