目的：应用Cirrus HD-OCT 5000对正常眼黄斑及视盘血流参数进行血管成像测量，评估其可重复性及再现性。方法：纳入40只正常眼进行前瞻性研究。操作者A于一周内3天的同一时段(T1，T2，T3)对正常受试者的同一眼黄斑及视盘进行3次血管成像扫描，扫描过程中均开启FastTracTM图像跟踪功能，操作者B在T 2时间点再次对受试者同一眼进行相同程序扫描，使用Angio PlexMetrixTM量化软件(版本10.0)自动测量黄斑和视盘的血管长度密度(vessel length density，VD)和血管灌注密度(vascular perfusion density，PD)。应用单因素方差分析或非参数检验比较3次扫描的VD、PD是否有差异。采用组内相关系数(intraclass correlation coefficient，ICC)、变异系数(coefficient of variation，CV)评价操作者A的可重复性，采用一致性相关系数(consistent correlation coefficient，CCC)、重复性系数(repeatability coefficient，CR)、C V评价操作者间的再现性。结果：操作者A对黄斑及视盘各区域3次扫描的V D、P D之间差异无统计学意义(P >0.05)。操作者A对黄斑和视盘V D、PD 3次扫描的ICC值分别为0.260~0.517、0.362~0.898，黄斑及视盘各区域V D、P D的C V值均<8.1%。黄斑和视盘V D、P D的操作者间CCC值分别为0.3130~0.5665、0.5149~0.7801；黄斑VD和PD的CR值分别为3.2212~4.6399、0.0574~0.0832；视盘VD和PD的CR值分别为2.0675~4.0630、0.0447~0.0730。黄斑CV值均<9.0%，视盘CV值均<6.9%。结论：非同日的同一时段视盘浅层血流参数具有较好的重复性及再现性，黄斑浅层血流参数的重复性及再现性相对较差。
Objective: To evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of quantification of macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries in normal eyes using Cirrus HD-OCT 5000 angiography. Methods: Forty normal eyes were included in this prospective study. Angiography 3 mm × 3 mm scan protocol centered on the disc or macula of the same eye was repeated 3 times by operator A in the same period on 3 days (T1, T2, T3) within 1 week,and the FastTracTM image tracking function was turned on during the scan. Operator B repeated the same scan independently at T2 after operator A. Angio Plex MetrixTM quantification software (version 10.0) was used to automatically measure the vessel length density (VD) and vascular perfusion density (PD) of macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries. One-way analysis of variance or nonparametric test was used to compare the VD and PD measurements of the 3 scans. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and coefficient of variation (CV)were calculated to evaluate the intra-operator repeatability. Consistent correlation coefficient (CCC), repeatability coefficient (CR), and CV were calculated to evaluate the inter-operator reproducibility. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in the measurements of VD and PD between the 3 scans of the macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries by operator A (P>0.05). The ICC values for the 3 scans of VD and PD of the macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries by operator A were 0.260–0.517 and 0.362~0.898, respectively.The CV values of the VD and PD of the macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries were all <8.1%. The inter-operator CCC values of the macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries were 0.3130–0.5665 and 0.5149~0.7801,respectively; the CR values of the VD and PD of macula were 3.2212–4.6399 and 0.0574–0.0832, respectively; the CR values of the VD and PD of optic disc were 2.0675–4.0630 and 0.0447–0.0730, respectively. The CV values of macular were all <9.0%, and the CV values of optic disc were all <6.9%. Conclusion:The macular and peri-papillary superficial capillaries parameters in the same period on different days have a good repeatability and reproducibility,while the superficial macular blood flow parameters have relatively poor repeatability and reproducibility.
目的：探讨原发性慢性闭角型青光眼(chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma，CPACG)患者的视网膜血流密度(vessel density，VD)与视野缺损程度的相关性。方法：光学相干断层血管成像技术(optical coherence tomography angiography，OCTA)测量89例(112眼)视野缺损的CPACG患者的黄斑区VD、视盘旁VD，分析VD与视野缺损程度的相关性。结果：视盘旁VD与视野缺损程度成负相关(r>–0.728，P<0.05)。黄斑浅层总VD的受试者工作曲线(receiver operating characteristic，ROC)及曲线下面积(area under the curve，AUC)为0.874。在控制年龄、眼压及视力的情况下，黄斑总浅层VD每降低1%，视野平均缺损(mean deviation，MD)值增加–0.639 dB。结论：CPACG患者VD与视野缺损呈线性负相关，OCTA可以方便无创地观察青光眼患者眼底血流情况，在视野缺损前发现视网膜VD降低，从而可以作为CPACG早期诊断的参考指标。
Objective: To investigate the correlation between the retinal vessel density (VD) and the degree of visual field loss in chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma (CPACG). Methods: Eighty-nine CPACG patients (112 eyes)with different degrees of visual field loss were measured with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) for macular VD and para-optic microcirculation VD, and the correlation between them and the degree of visual field defect were analyzed. Results: There was a negative correlation between the VD of the microcirculation in each zone next to the optic disc and the degree of visual field loss (r>–0.728, P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and area under the curve (AUC) of the total VD of the superficial macula is 0.874. Under the condition of controlling age, intraocular pressure and vision, for every 1% decrease in the total superficial macular VD, the average visual field defect mean deviation (MD) value increases –0.639 dB. Conclusion: The VD of CPACG patients is linearly negatively correlated with visual field defects. OCTA can conveniently and non-invasively observe the blood flow of the fundus in patients with glaucoma. It is found that the retinal VD is reduced before visual field defects, which can be used as a reference index for early diagnosis of CPACG.
