A Recursive Bayesian Approach To Describe Retinal Vasculature Geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Demographic studies suggest that changes in the retinal vasculature geometry, especially in vessel width, are associated with the incidence or progression of eye-related or systemic diseases. To date, the main information source for width estimation from

Micro-Vessel Image Segmentation Based on the AD-UNet Model

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Retinal vessel segmentation plays a vital role in computer-aided diagnosis and treatment of retinal diseases. Considering the low contrast between retinal vessels and the background image, complex structural information as well as blurred boundaries ...

Age and diabetes related changes of the retinal capillaries: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Retinal blood vessels segmentation using classical edge detection filters and the neural network

open access: yesInformatics 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.

RETINAL VESSEL ANALYSIS - NEW POSSIBILITIES [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedizinische Technik/Biomedical Engineering, 2002
Retinal Vessel Analysis is a new technique to assess behavior of large retinal vessels based on diameter measurements. The Retinal Vessel Analyzer (RVA) measures continuously on-line obtaining data in relation to time and local position. Possible analysis tools include (a) Time Course Analysis of physiological, pathological, or therapy induced changes;

Retinal vascular tortuosity in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease overlap syndrome

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2018
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are linked with microvascular changes. Retinal microvasculature can be examined in a direct noninvasive way.

Mechanisms underlying microglial colonization of developing neural retina in zebrafish

open access: yeseLife, 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.

Discordance in Retinal and Choroidal Vascular Densities in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus on Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Purpose. In the present study, the retinal and choroidal vascular densities (VDs) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients were analyzed using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). Methods.
