Abstract
Choroidal thickness (CT) varies with systemic inflammatory activity in diseases such as spondyloarthritis, suggesting its potential role as a biomarker. This study aimes to evaluate changes in CT in patients recently diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) who are undergoing corticosteroid therapy, over a six-month follow-up period. This is a prospective, observational, longitudinal pilot study including 20 patients with recent PMR diagnosis from two centres.
