Multimodal imaging supporting the pathophysiology of white dot syndromes
Abstract White dot syndromes (WDS) represent a heterogeneous group of inflammatory diseases, primarily affecting the outer retina, choriocapillaris and choroid. Recent advances in the field of ocular imaging and development of new technologies, including optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT...

This review will analyse the WDS from an imaging-based perspective, providing a better understanding of the pathophysiology underlying these disorders. |
