Outer retinal tubulation: a novel optical coherence tomography finding
SA Zweifel, M Engelbert, K Laud… - Archives of …, 2009 - jamanetwork.com
Objective To describe tubular structures found in the outer retina seen in a variety of retinal
disorders. Methods Sixty-nine eyes of 63 patients were examined with spectral-domain
optical coherence tomography. Optical coherence tomography C-scans were correlated with
their corresponding B-scans. The prevalence, number, size, and shape of the tubular
structures were determined. Results Branching tubules were identified in the outer retina of
54 patients with age-related macular degeneration and in 9 patients with other diagnoses …
