Multimodal imaging relies on combination of multiple imaging modalities to precisely delineate pathological changes in the posterior segment of the eye associated with a wide range of conditions. This combined application of fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, fundus reflectance/autofluorescence and fundus angiography (with fluorescein, indocyanine green and/or optical coherence tomography) is of great utility for assessment of patients with ocular toxoplasmosis. Multimodal imaging is helpful to characterize the typical pattern of toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis, with primary focal inflammatory involvement of the neurosensory retina, and secondary changes at the level of underlying choroid, retinal blood vessels, vitreous and even optic disc. It may also be valuable to document and follow local complications, including macular edema, vascular occlusions, and choroidal neovascularization, among others.
多模态成像依赖于多种成像模式的结合,以精确描绘与广泛疾病相关的眼部后节的病理变化。眼底照相、光学相干断层扫描、眼底反射/自发荧光和眼底血管造影(包括荧光素、吲哚青绿和/或光相干断层扫描)的联合应用对于眼弓形体病患者的评估非常有用。多模态成像有助于对弓形体性视网膜炎的典型模式进行特征描述,其主要表现为神经感觉视网膜的局灶性炎症性受累,以及在脉络膜、视网膜血管、玻璃体甚至视盘等水平的继发性改变。它还可能有助于记录和随访局部并发症,包括黄斑水肿、血管阻塞和脉络膜新生血管形成等。
