Standardised diagnostic features of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy seen on indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and colour fundus photography. (A) Colour fundus photograph showing orange subretinal nodules (arrow) and pigment epithelial detachment (arrowhead). (B) ICGA of the same eye demonstrating nodular areas of hyperfluorescence (arrow), appearing within the first 5 min, with a halo of hypofluorescence around the nodule (arrowhead). A branching vascular network (BVN) is seen superior to the fovea, supplying the polyps which are located at the periphery of the BVN. (C) Colour fundus photograph showing massive submacular haemorrhage at the posterior pole. (D) Corresponding ICGA demonstrating areas of hyperfluorescence (arrow) which correspond with the polyps. No BVN is seen in this angiogram.
