Medical Investigation of Retinal Vascular Occlusion

Medical Investigation of Retinal Vascular Occlusion.

I believe that such an approach will call for considerable changes in medical education before we are far into the twentyfirst century. It is time already that the old-fashioned academic ideas of the sort of education needed in common for all doctors should be scrapped. I have given a list earlier of the different levels of human biology, and I believe that an honest education in depth in any o...

Thrombophilia and retinal vascular occlusion

PURPOSE The purpose of this research was to assess associations of thrombophilia with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), and amaurosis fugax (AF); to evaluate outcomes of normalizing high homocysteine; and to study CRVO, CRAO, and AF developing in estrogens/estrogen agonists in women subsequently shown to have thrombophilia. METHODS Measures of thr...

CLBP for Retinal Vascular Occlusion Detection

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and diabetic retinal disease is the most widespread type of retinal disorders. The precisely extracted Retinal blood vessel provides a vital factor in the early diagnosis of retinopathy. In this paper a programmed method is proposed to enhance the performance evaluation of feature extraction technique to obtain the affected ocular fundus images in the retinal blood ...

Intravenous Streptokinase in the Treatment of Retinal Vascular Occlusion.

Medical conditions underlying recurrence of retinal vein occlusion.

Seventeen patients with recurrent retinal vein occlusion were investigated for underlying medical conditions and compared with 61 patients with single retinal vein occlusion (26 with central, 35 with branch vein occlusion). The two study groups were comparable for age, sex, and weight. Patients with recurrence had a significantly increased prevalence rate of hypertension (88% versus 48%: p less...
