Résumé
The study aims to analyze the changes produced by half-dose photodynamic therapy (HD-PDT) in the choroid of eyes with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) applying the binarization method to spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) and OCT Angiography (OCTA) images. SDOCT and OCTA were performed before, one hour, one week, and one month after HD-PDT. Binarization with a modified Niblack method and analysis by ImageJ were applied. An average ratio between luminal part and total structure was calculated. Twenty-two eyes of 21 patients (20 male and 1 female; mean age 54.8 years) were enrolled. A statistically significant reduction of the central choroidal thickness was observed one week (from 407 µm to 362 µm, p = 0.034) and one month (from 407 µm to 341.5 µm, p = 0.0004) after HD-PDT. The baseline average ratio between luminal part and total structure was 33.4% in SDOCT, and 61.1% in OCTA. These values were 35.3% and 61% one hour, 33.9% and 60.4% one week, and 34.5% and 60.6% one month after HD-PDT, respectively. Overall, PDT seems to produce short-term changes on the luminal component of both choriocapillaris and choroid, which return to baseline status after one month from treatment. However, choroid stays significantly thinner after one month, with both luminal and interstitial components significantly reduced.
