Abstract

THE ARRAY OF DISEASES ENCOMPASSED UNDER PACHYCHOROID HAS EXPANDED AS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHOROID HAS INCREASED. FROM BEING FIRST DESCRIBED AS A GROUP OF DISORDERS HAVING A COMMON CLINICAL FEATURE OF “PACHY” OR THICK CHOROID, THE DEFINITION NOW INCORPORATES A RANGE OF DISTINCT CLINICAL ENTITIES INCLUDING PACHYCHOROID PIGMENT EPITHELIOPATHY, CENTRAL SEROUS CHORIORETINOPATHY, FOCAL CHOROIDAL EXCAVATIONS, PERIPAPILLARY PACHYCHOROID SYNDROME, PACHYCHOROID NEOVASCULOPATHY, AND POLYPOIDAL CHOROIDAL VASCULOPATHY. ADVANCES IN MULTIMODAL IMAGING TECHNOLOGY, INCLUDING ICGA, DFA, SS-OCT, EN-FACE OCT, OCTA, AND OTHERS, HAVE MADE A SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTION TO BRIDGING THE GAPS IN OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THIS SPECTRUM. THE INSTRUCTION COURSE WOULD FOCUS ON RECOGNIZING THIS EMERGING DISEASE SPECTRUM THROUGH A CASE-BASED DISCUSSION WITH MULTIMODAL IMAGING. THIS WILL AID THE ATTENDEES TO FORMULATE THE BEST POSSIBLE DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES FOR OPTIMAL OUTCOMES IN PACHYCHOROID MANAGEMENT.
