Welcome to the Central Angiographic Resource Facility

CARF is the management facility for the Network of Ophthalmic Reading Centres UK, known as NetwORC UK. We are the largest Reading Centre in Europe for Opthalmic Photo Grading. We currently grade studies in AMD, Diabetic Retinopathy, Diabetic Macular Oedema, Macular Telangiectasia, Blebs and Cataract.

CARF collects various imaging modality data including colour funuds images, fluorescein angiograms and OCT scans from hospital treating centres throughout the world for clinical trials and research studies. We also collate grading information from our associated Reading Centres, manage our Quality Assurance processes and transmit data to selected data management centres.
