Background Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) allows noninvasive, depth-selective visualization of retinal and choroidal vascular networks by detecting the endoluminal blood flow. This results in three-dimensional high-resolution images which are not possible by regular fluorescein angiography in this spatial resolution. Thus, OCT-A can be used to visualize the microperfusion of retinal and choroidal vessels and their alterations due to diverse pathologies and during the course of therapy. Based on several clinical case reports this article gives an overview of the wide range of applications of OCT-A.
