Abstract
To estimate the conversion factors to transpose macular thickness measurements on time-domain (TD) to various spectral-domain (SD) optical coherence tomography (OCT) machines in patients with macular telangiectasia type 2a (MacTel).
Macular scans on TD- and SD-OCT were performed on patients at the same visit. The retinal thickness values in various ETDRS subfields and macular volume were compared between different OCT machines.
The macular thickness and volume were significantly greater (p < 0.0001, r = 0.678-0.822) on SD-OCT. The mean differences in macular thickness between TD Stratus and SD-OCT by Spectralis, Cirrus and Topcon were 62, 41 and 20 μm, respectively. The conversion factor of macular thickness from TD-OCT to Spectralis, Cirrus and Topcon were +65, +39 and +25 μm, respectively.
The estimates of conversion of macular thickness from TD- to SD-OCT using simple mean differences between machines and those by linear regression were similar suggesting that the former may be used for the longitudinal follow-up of MacTel patients.
