Retinal blood vessels segmentation using classical edge detection filters and the neural network
Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2021 Retinal blood vessels analysis is of interest for medical screening, especially in the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy. In this paper, we propose a new method for the segmentation of blood vessels in retinal photographs.

Age and diabetes related changes of the retinal capillaries: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study [PDF]
, 2015 Normal human aging and diabetes are associated with a gradual decrease of cerebral flow in the brain with changes in vascular architecture. Thickening of the capillary basement membrane and microvascular fibrosis are evident in the central nervous system

Mechanisms underlying microglial colonization of developing neural retina in zebrafish
eLife, 2021 Microglia are brain-resident macrophages that function as the first line of defense in brain. Embryonic microglial precursors originate in peripheral mesoderm and migrate into the brain during development.
