    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on a faster and noninvasive visualization for the treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) through the dual-modality system optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). Topics covered include complete visualization of capillary beds by surgeons and better prediction of CNV treatment for membrane stability. Also mentioned are the OCTA system with split-spectrum amplitude-decorrelation angiography (SSADA) algorithm for high quality images.
