In recent years enormous progress has been achieved in investigational procedures for uveitis. Imaging is one such example with the advent of new methods such as indocyanine green angiography, ultrasound biomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography to cite only the most important. This tremendous increase in precision and accuracy in the assessment of the level and degree of inflammation and its monitoring comes in parallel with the development of extremely potent and efficacious therapies. In view of these developments, our whole attitude in the appraisal and investigation of the uveitis patient has to be adapted and correctly reoriented integrating the recent developments and this is no different for ocular angiography.
近年来,葡萄膜炎的研究方法取得了巨大进展。成像技术就是一个例子,仅列举最重要的几种,如吲哚菁绿血管造影术、超声生物显微镜检查和光学相干断层扫描等新方法的出现。在炎症程度评估及其监测方面,精度和准确性的大幅提高与极其有效且高效的治疗方法的发展同步进行。鉴于这些进展,我们对葡萄膜炎患者的评估和研究的整体态度必须进行调整,并结合最新进展进行正确的重新定位,眼部血管造影术也不例外。
