Indications for Fluorescein Angiography in Disease of the Ocular Fundus: A Review

Fundus photography and fluorescein angiography Fluorescein angiography

Fluorescein angiography is a clinical diagnostic test procedure in which rapid-sequence photography is performed after intravenous injection of sodium fluorescein. The procedure allows the documentation of the retinal circulation. Of equal importance is the ability of the angiogram to outline the entire retinal vascular bed. Previous clinical methods of examination of the fundus enabled the phy...

Does Fundus Fluorescein Angiography Procedure Affect Ocular Pulse Amplitude?

Purpose. This study examines the effects of fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) procedure on ocular pulse amplitude (OPA) and intraocular pressure (IOP). Materials and Methods. Sixty eyes of 30 nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy patients (15 males, 15 females) were included in this cross-sectional case series. IOP and OPA were measured with the Pascal dynamic contour tonometer before and af...

Funages: an Expert System for Fundus Fluorescein Angiography Funages: an Expert System for Fundus Fluorescein Angiography

both the computational and the medical side of these concerns began to develop mutual interests and approaches, and to form coherent col-laborative research [1]. One of the first uses of artificial intelligence (AI) on a practical level was the coupling of expert medical knowledge with computer-based technology. As early as the 1960s, computer scientists and physicians recognized the possibilit...

Fundus photography and fluorescein angiography.

Fundus fluorescein angiography in retinopathy of prematurity.

In this issue of the Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, Ng, Lanigan, and O’Keefe present their findings regarding fundus fluorescein angiography in the management and screening of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Recently, there has been interest in photographic documentation of ROP in hospitals lacking sufficient ophthalmologic staff. Images created in the intensive care nursery...
