ICGA in CSR

A

vascular abnormalities of the choroid, including filling delays of the choroidal arteries and the choriocapillaris, venous dilation, vascular hyperpermeability and characteristic multifocal patchy areas of choroidal hypercyanescence that appear in early phases and slowly extend as the study progresses. A washout pattern is often seen as well.
