PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship between retinal haemorrhages detected on Ultra-widefield (UWF) red channel images and perfusion status in eyes with acute central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). METHODS: UWF fundus images were split into green and red channels using ImageJ software. The retinal haemorrhages were calculated quantitatively with both the green and red channel images, resulting in green channel haemorrhages (GCH) and red channel haemorrhages (RCH). The nonperfusion area (NPA) was also calculated from fluorescein angiography in each eye. The relationships between both the GCH and RCH with the NPA were investigated. RESULTS: Thirty-two eyes of 32 patients with acute CRVO (18 men, 14 women) were included. The mean GCH and RCH values were 10.4% ± 8.2% and 1.7% ± 1.7%, respectively. The mean NPA was 39.2% ± 28.8%. Significant correlations were seen between the GCH and NPA (r = 0.38; P = 0.022) and RCH and NPA (r = 0.44; P = 0.010, linear regression analysis). Multivariate analysis suggested that only the RCHs were correlated significantly with the NPA. CONCLUSIONS: Retinal haemorrhages detected by UWF red channel imaging were less compared to green channel imaging and associated closely with retinal NPAs in eyes with acute CRVO. UWF red channel imaging allowed us to identify ischaemia-related haemorrhage.
