OBJECTIVE: To evaluate volumetric changes and discriminative power of intra-retinal layers in early-stage multiple sclerosis (MS) using a 3D optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging method based on an in-house segmentation algorithm.
METHODS: 3D analysis of intra-retinal layers was performed in 71 patients with early-stage MS (mean disease duration 2.2 ± 3.5 years) at baseline and 40 healthy controls (HCs). All patients underwent a follow-up OCT scan within 23 ± 9 months. Patients with a clinical episode of optic neuritis (ON) more than 6 months prior to study entrance were compared with patients who never experienced clinical symptoms of an ON episode (NON).
RESULTS: Significantly decreased total retinal volume (TRV), macular retinal nerve fiber layer (mRNFL) and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) volumes were detected in ON patients compared to NON patients (all p values < 0.05) at baseline. Each parameter on its own allowed identification of prior clinical ON based on a discriminative model (ROC analysis). Over time, TRV decreased in both ON (p = 0.013) and NON patients (p = 0.002), whereas mRNFL volume (p = 0.028) decreased only in ON and GCIPL volume (p = 0.003) decreased only in NON patients.
CONCLUSION: Our 3D-OCT data demonstrated that TRV, mRNFL and GCIPL allow discrimination between ON and NON patients in a cross-sectional analysis. However, the subsequent retinal atrophy pattern diverges in the initial phase of MS: Prior ON promotes sustained axonal thinning over time indicated by mRNFL loss, whereas longitudinal measurement of GCIPL volume better depicts continuous retrograde neurodegeneration in NON patients in early-stage MS.
