Dynamic retinal vessel analysis: flickering a light into the brain
INTRODUCTION: Growing aging populations pose new challenges to public health as the number of people living with dementia grows in tandem. To alleviate the burden of dementia, prodromal signs of cognitive impairment must be recognized and risk factors reduced. In this context, non-invasive techniques may be used to identify early changes and monitor disease progression. Dynamic retinal vessel analysis (DVA) provides an opportunity to measure retinal vasoreactivity in a way that may be comparable...
