A series of cases that highlight the various uses and interpretations of OCT imaging, including the Hood Report, change/trend reports, OCT angiography, en face images, fundus autofluorescence, circumpapillary RNFL measurements, and minimum rim width measurements.Learning Objectives
1. Review basics of OCT technology and scan parameters
2. Review basic OCT reports/scans: circumpapillary RNFL, macular asymmetry maps, fundus autofluorescence
3. Review more recent OCT reports/scans: Hood Report, minimum rim width, OCTA, en face
4. Review basics of OCTA, interpretations, and indications
5. Understand when to use which type of scans to aid in diagnosis and management of posterior segment diseases
6. Understand when and how imaging artifacts occur and potential ways to fix it to improve reliability and repeatability of measurements
