Description

In the second edition of Atlas of Ocular Blood Flow, Dr. Alon Harris details the vascular anatomy and physiology of the eye, analyzes the eye's blood supply, and evaluates the latest technologies available for assessing patients. He shows you how irregular ocular blood flow patterns can indicate systemic or medication-related conditions, and presents images and actual case reports to illustrate the use of new technologies such as OCT with Doppler application and non-invasive retinal oximetry. With more than 400 illustrations, most in full color, this is the only atlas worldwide that gives you pictorial presentations, anatomical illustrations, and detailed descriptions of the methods available to measure blood flow. Gain a clear understanding of the anatomy/physiology of the blood supply to and within the eye to help make more effective clinical decisions. Analyze the potential effects of blood flow changes in various eye illnesses to see how they are influenced by diseases like glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration. Rely on the extensive experience of the authors in implementing new technologies to better access ocular circulation. Diagnose ocular, systemic, or medication-related conditions in patients by measuring their ocular blood flow. Master the newest techniques and glimpse new technologies that will be available for assessing ocular blood flow in the future. Visualize anatomy, techniques, and imaging findings with more than 400 illustrations.
