Optical coherence tomography (OCT) to image active and inactive retinoblastomas as well as retinomas.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To illustrate Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images of active and inactive retinoblastoma (Rb) tumours.

Methods

Current observational study included patients diagnosed with retinoblastoma and retinoma who were presented at Amsterdam UMC and Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, between November 2010 and October 2017. Patients aged between 0 and 4 years were imaged under general anaesthesia with handheld OCT in supine position. Patients older than 4 years were imaged with the conventional OCT (Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg Spectralis, Germany). All patients included were divided into two groups: active and inactive tumours (retinoma and regression patterns). Patients' medical records and OCT images were analysed during meetings via discussions by ophthalmologists and phy
