Imaging Techniques and Emerging Therapies for Geographic Atrophy
Dr. Carolyn Majcher, OD, FAAO, FAAO
Optometric physicians often serve as the primary point of detection of geographic atrophy (GA), which is the defining lesion of atrophic AMD.Multimodal imaging is essential to detect, monitor and quantify GA lesions.This course will explore early high-risk OCT biomarkers that predict or predispose to future GA development, as well as OCT and fundus autofluorescence features that predict expansion. New complement inhibitor therapies will be introduced.
