Choriocapillaris and Choroidal Microvasculature Imaging with Ultrahigh Speed OCT Angiography
We demonstrate in vivo choriocapillaris and choroidal microvasculature imaging in normal human subjects using optical coherence tomography (OCT). An ultrahigh speed swept source OCT prototype at 1060 nm wavelengths with a 400 kHz A-scan rate is developed for three-dimensional ultrahigh speed imaging of the posterior eye. OCT angiography is used to image three-dimensional vascular structure with...
متن کاملPulmonary Hypertension Complicating Systemic Hypertension, Is Diastolic Dysfunction the Culprit?
Background: Elevation in PA pressures has been observed by 2D echo in some but not all hypertensive patients. The mechanism and hemodynamic impact of pulmonary hypertension in these patients remains unclear. Methods: We reviewed echoes of all patients referred with systemic hypertension between 9/2006 to 5/2009 to identify those patients with left ventricular hypertrophy, normal systolic functi...
متن کاملRight ventricular dysfunction in systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension.
BACKGROUND Systemic sclerosis–associated pulmonary artery hypertension (SScPAH) has a worse prognosis compared with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH), with a median survival of 3 years after diagnosis often caused by right ventricular (RV) failure. We tested whether SScPAH or systemic sclerosis–related pulmonary hypertension with interstitial lung disease imposes a greater pulmo...
متن کاملBeyond systemic hypertension: understanding cardiac dysfunction in obstructive sleep apnea.
Accessible online at: www.karger.com/journals/res In this issue of Respiration, Alchanatis et al. [1] report their evaluation of left ventricular (LV) cardiac function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) before and after 3 months of nocturnal nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) treatment. The authors attempted to look beyond the known effects of systemic hypertension as...
متن کاملIsolated right ventricular dysfunction in systemic sclerosis: latent pulmonary hypertension?
Right ventricular function is frequently abnormal in patients with systemic sclerosis, but whether this is related to pulmonary vascular complications of the disease is unclear. Standard echocardiography with tissue Doppler imaging was performed at rest and during exercise for the study of right ventricular function and pulmonary circulation in 25 consecutive systemic sclerosis patients and in ...
