Comparison of phase-resolved Doppler optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography for measuring retinal blood vessels size

Abstract

The goal of this study was to compare two OCT-based methods for measuring retinal blood vessels size: Phase-resolved Doppler OCT (DOCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). The study was conducted in rats (n= 6) using a SD-OCT system operating at 1060 nm with 92 kHz image acquisition rate. Arteries and veins were separated by the phase polarity. Results from this study showed that the venal diameters are significantly larger than the arterial diameters, and there is no significant difference in the vessel diameters measured by both methods.
