Choroidal Disorders provides an overview on various chorioretinal
disorders with a special emphasis on choroidal imaging. As our
understanding of the choroid has significantly improved with the
development of advanced optical coherence tomography (OCT) and its
role in posterior segment diseases is gaining new significance,
this book focuses on the related improvements, diagnostic
capabilities, management and prognosis of various chorioretinal
disorders. It covers conventional techniques, such as
ultrasonography and indocyanine green angiography as well as the
most advanced techniques, including enhanced depth imaging OCT,
swept source OCT, and OCT angiography.
Central Serous Chorioretinopathy discusses the mechanisms,
pathogenesis and risk factors of CSCR, findings on various imaging
modalities, available treatment options, and translational research
into new treatment options for CSCR management. This comprehensive
book is written for retina specialists and surgeons, researchers
and clinical practitioners in sensory systems (vision), and
ophthalmologists. Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is a
common disorder across the world with a variable prognosis without
any standard of care. Recently, advancements in imaging have led to
a better understanding of the pathogenesis and mechanisms of this
disease.
The book discusses all aspects of choroidal neovascularization
(CNV), including the basics, clinical conditions associated with
CNV, clinical trials related to CNV, future directions and
rehabilitation. The first section covers the pathogenesis, proposed
mechanisms, disease models, histopathology and electronmicroscopy.
The next section explores CNV secondary to various clinical
conditions, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), myopia,
and less common conditions like choroidal osteoma. The book also
covers clinical features, imaging characteristics, and treatment
approaches, as well as clinical trials in CNV conditions with
recent updates. Lastly, it features chapters on stem cell therapy,
gene therapy, new molecules, and lasers, as well as a section on
rehabilitation, which addresses home monitoring and low vision
aids. This book is intended for retina specialists, retina fellows
and general ophthalmologists.
