Abstract
The paper discusses modern diagnostic methods for choroidal neovascularization. Special attention is paid to the state-of-the-art method of diagnosing – optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCT-angiography). It is non-invasive and allows the examination of the vascular structures in three-dimensional regimen. It has high sensitivity and specificity in the choroidal neovascularization detection in macular pathology and presents a feasible alternative to the diagnosing methods of contrast investigation.
Key words
