AB  - PURPOSE: To examine retinal blood flow at arteriovenous crossings using 
      spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS: Retrospective 
      observational case series of 11 arteriovenous crossings in 10 eyes examined by 
      SD-OCT and fluorescein angiography on suspicion of manifest or imminent branch 
      retinal vein occlusion. RESULTS: Fluorescein angiographic evidence of turbulence 
      was seen at 5 of 11 arteriovenous crossings, whereas laminar angiographic flow 
      was intact at the crossing and downstream thereof at the remaining 6 crossings. 
      On SD-OCT, chaotic reflectivity patterns were seen at the point of crossing and 
      downstream thereof in all 5 cases with angiographic turbulence, whereas an 
      intravascular trilayer SD-OCT pattern consistent with laminar flow was seen 
      throughout the examined course of the vein in the eyes with laminar angiographic 
      flow. CONCLUSION: We examined retinal blood flow at and near arteriovenous 
      crossings and found that SD-OCT may rival fluorescein angiography in the ability 
      to demonstrate turbulent venous blood flow.
