CIRRUS OCT Angiography (AngioPlex
retinal and choroidal vasculature. Careful review of CIRRUS OCT Angiography scans should
be carried out before accepting scanned images, as described in
Angiography Acceptance Criteria" on page
recommended that, during CIRRUS OCT Angiography image analysis, you re-assess the
possible impact of scan quality, segmentation errors, and decorrelation tails.
Angiography scan slabs can be acquired in 3x3, 6x6, and 8x8 mm, but only 3x3 mm and
6x6 mm scans include the additional metrics available. Montage Angio scan slabs can be
acquired in 6x6 mm and 8x8 mm and analyzed in both. Additionally, ONH Angiography
scan slabs can be acquired in 4.5x4.5 mm and analyzed. AngioPlex scans can be analyzed
using the methods and metrics shown in Table 9-1. These methods are described in the
sections which follow.

For all CIRRUS OCT Angiography Analysis options (Angiography, Montage Angio, and ONH
Angiography), the left side of the screen (1) displays pre-defined angiography slabs or
"Presets" (and user-defineable or "custom" presets), which are arranged in 1 or 2 columns.
The preset slabs for both Angiography, Montage Angio, and ONH Angiography are
