Application of optical coherence tomography in multiple sclerosis: consensus recommendations of the Austrian network (AN-OCT-MS)

Abstract

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) for measuring retinal layer thicknesses is a new modality relevant for the diagnosis and prognosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), which is now anchored in clinical routine at the latest with the 2024 revision of the McDonald criteria. The aim of this consensus paper, prepared by the members of the Austrian Network for Optical Coherence Tomography in Multiple Sclerosis (AN-OCT-MS), is to provide a acomprehensive recommendation for the use of OCT in patients with MS.
