Summary

Current diabetic retinopathy classifications lack consensus, hindering research comparison. The authors propose a new system based on fluorescein angiography to better guide treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Diabetology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Diabetic retinopathy classification lacks consensus, impeding research comparability.
  • Existing classifications rely on anatomical criteria (ophthalmoscopy, photography).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel classification system for diabetic retinopathy.
  • To establish a consensus based on functional and pathogenic criteria.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on diabetic retinopathy classification.
  • Proposal of a new classification system based on fluorescein angiography.
  • Correlation of angiographic findings with pathogenic mechanisms and treatment.

Main Results:

  • Fluorescein angiography provides functional evaluation of retinal circulation.

  • Edematous diabetic retinopathy correlates with capillary dilation.
  • Ischemic diabetic retinopathy correlates with capillary occlusion.

    • Conclusions:

    • A classification based on fluorescein angiography offers pathogenic correlation and guides treatment.
    • This approach allows for functional assessment of retinal circulation in diabetic retinopathy.
    • Macular diseases can be classified using these angiographic criteria.
