Abstract

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has growing application for microvascular assessment in dermatology. Various instruments, imaging protocols, processing methods, and metrics have been used to describe the microvasculature, so comparing different study outcomes is currently not generally feasible. We present a user-friendly, open-source toolbox, OCTAVA, to help remedy this shortcoming. We present three use cases for assessing software accuracy and repeatability, and we investigate how OCTAVA can support wider adoption of OCTA as a clinical tool. Wide adoption of this software will help drive the development of reliable microvascular biomarkers for early detection and treatment guidance of diseases.
