Scatterplots illustrating correlations between the number of choroidal hyperreflective foci (HRF) and the untransformed geographic atrophy (GA) size. (Upper scatterplots) Relationship between the untransformed GA size and average number of choroidal HRF obtained using the threshold reflectivity methodology in the choriocapillaris (CC; ρ = 0.748 and P < 0.0001 and CC; ρ = 0.727 and P < 0.0001), Sattler's (ρ = 0.495 and P = 0.001) (ρ = 0.491 and P = 0.001), and Haller's (ρ = 0.386 and P = 0.014) (ρ = −0.351 and P = 0.026) layers, and whole choroid (ρ = 0.679 and P < 0.0001) (ρ = 0.672 and P < 0.0001). (Lower scatterplots) Relationship between the untransformed GA size and average number of choroidal HRF obtained using the manual counting methodology in the CC (ρ = 0.727 and P < 0.0001), Sattler's (ρ = 0.491 and P = 0.001), and Haller's (ρ = −0.351 and P = 0.026) layers, and whole choroid (ρ = 0.672 and P < 0.0001).
