Optimal retinal neuronal cell function requires an appropriate, tightly regulated environment,
provided by cellular barriers, which separate functional compartments, maintain their …

Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the most common cause of vision loss in patients with
type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Glycemic control, hypertension, and dyslipidemia are known to …

The classification of retinal vessels into artery/vein (A/V) is an important phase for
automating the detection of vascular changes, and for the calculation of characteristic signs …

Diabetes is a condition of increase in the blood sugar level higher than the normal range.
Prolonged diabetes damages the small blood vessels in the retina resulting in diabetic …

Background Longstanding diabetes mellitus results in a disturbed microcirculation. A new
imaging oximeter was used to investigate the effect of this disturbance on retinal vessel …

Purpose.: To evaluate the differences in retinal circulation in eyes of patients with type 2
diabetes with no or early-stage diabetic retinopathy compared with control eyes. Methods …

Automatic artery/vein (A/V) classification, as the basic prerequisite for the quantitative
analysis of retinal vascular network, has been actively investigated in recent years using …

Purpose.: A variety of studies have shown that flicker-induced vasodilatation is reduced in
patients with diabetes. It is, however, unclear whether reduced neural activity or abnormal …

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the retinal blood flow velocities of
patients with diabetes and healthy control subjects. We used a novel device offering a …

Background and objectives: The automatic classification of retinal blood vessels into artery
and vein (A/V) is still a challenging task in retinal image analysis. Recent works on A/V …
