Abstract
In conclusion, we have demonstrated that OCTA is capable of detecting subclinical macular perfusion abnormalities in patients with mild PE who have no visual complaints. Specifically, the foveal and parafoveal vessel density of the SCP were significantly decreased in preeclamptic compared to normal pregnant females. No significant difference was found between both pregnant groups regarding FAZ area, VD of the DCP or CC.
We recommend that OCTA be used in as part of the routine follow up of pregnant females newly diagnosed with PE. We also recommend larger-scale longitudinal studies to be conducted, with the inclusion of systemic biomarkers such as blood hormone and urinary protein levels. Most importantly, we think that an international consensus on OCTA imaging protocols, and the parameters used to evaluate perfusion, for each imaging platform, should be pursued. This will facilitate drawing clear comparisons between different studies and making more precise conclusions.
