The aim of the chapter is to provide a practical but exhaustive guide in detecting macular edema and to describe its features according to the retinal condition that causes it. The most useful imaging techniques (biomicroscopy, retinography, optical coherence tomography, and fluorescein/indocyanine-green angiography will be analyzed in order to identify the best diagnostic algorithm in each pathology. There is a table at the end of the chapter which summarizes the important points of the chapter.

Abstract

The aim of the chapter is to provide a practical but exhaustive guide in detecting macular edema and to describe its features according to the retinal condition that causes it. The most useful imaging techniques (biomicroscopy, retinography, optical coherence tomography, and fluorescein/indocyanine-green angiography will be analyzed in order to identify the best diagnostic algorithm in each pathology. There is a table at the end of the chapter which summarizes the important points of the chapter.
