Macular and Peripapillary Retinal Capillary Measurement by OCT Angiography at Baseline, 12 Months, and 24 Months after Plaque Brachytherapy

All Patients (n = 21) No Radiation Retinopathy at 24 Months (n = 10) Radiation Retinopathy at 24 Months (n = 11)

 Baseline 48.4±3.6 48.1±4.1 49.0±4.0
 12 mos 43.5±5.9 (P = 0.01) 46.8±3.3 (P = 0.232) 40.3±6.1 (P = 0.002)
 24 mos 37.4±9.1 (P < 0.001) 42.4±5.1 (P = 0.02) 32.5±9.7 (P = 0.002)
FAZ area (mm2)
 Baseline 0.26±0.11 0.26±0.09 0.26±0.12
 12 mos 0.35±0.22 (P = 0.009) 0.27±0.08 (P = 0.375) 0.42±0.27 (P = 0.10)
 24 mos 0.81±1.03 (P = 0.001) 0.30±0.10 (P = 0.426) 1.33±1.29 (P = 0.004)
NFLP_CD (% area)
 Baseline 48.4±4.1 49.5±4.2 47.3±4.1
 12 mos 46.7±5.0 (P = 0.04) 47.4±3.8 (P = 0.131) 46.0±6.1 (P = 0.275)
 24 mos 44.5±6.1 (P < 0.001) 46.9±4.6 (P = 0.04) 41.7±6.7 (P = 0.008)

FAZ = foveal avascular zone; mSVC_VD = macular superficial vascular complex vessel density; NFLP_CD = peripapillary nerve fiber layer capillary density.

P< 0.05 was used to define significance.
