The increasing use of indocyanine green angiography in recent years makes this book a useful resource. Provides a detailed introduction to ICG angiography, covering its unique vocabulary and methodology. Also describes normal choroidal filling phases as they occur in two healthy subjects.

The technology of angiographic systems has greatly improved. This atlas covers the basic principles of the new methods for fluorescein- and indocyanine green-angiography, as well as the high resolution imaging of fundus autofluorescence.

This book presents a new avenue in the field of ophthalmology and sheds light on the field of eye imaging. With the increasing availability of electronic devices and their important role in both personal and professional aspects of human life, there is a growing need for perfect vision. Ophthalmic imaging is a major tool for screening and documenting eye diseases in both medical and surgical fields of ophthalmology and is also of use for ophthalmologists around the globe. The number of eye-imaging devices has increased dramatically, however undiagnosed or poorly managed eye diseases remain a significant cause of ocular and visual problems worldwide. This essential guide addresses the need for a book that is dedicated to ophthalmic imaging, covering the cornea, glaucoma, retina and orbital imaging with updates on medical and surgical aspects of the topic.

This open access book provides a comprehensive overview of the application of the newest laser and microscope/ophthalmoscope technology in the field of high resolution imaging in microscopy and ophthalmology. Starting by describing High-Resolution 3D Light Microscopy with STED and RESOLFT, the book goes on to cover retinal and anterior segment imaging and image-guided treatment and also discusses the development of adaptive optics in vision science and ophthalmology. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the reader will learn about the latest developments and most up to date technology in the field and how these translate to a medical setting. High Resolution Imaging in Microscopy and Ophthalmology – New Frontiers in Biomedical Optics has been written by leading experts in the field and offers insights on engineering, biology, and medicine, thus being a valuable addition for scientists, engineers, and clinicians with technical and medical interest who would like to understand the equipment, the applications and the medical/biological background. Lastly, this book is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Gerhard Zinser, co-founder of Heidelberg Engineering GmbH, a scientist, a husband, a brother, a colleague, and a friend.

Recent technological advances in the diagnosis of macular disorders have enhanced our understanding of these diseases. At the same time, advances in small-gauge vitrectomy instrumentation and techniques have improved the safety and efficiency of surgery, allowing macular conditions that would have otherwise resulted in blindness to be treated effectively, preserving patients’ sight. Macular surgery continues to evolve rapidly, thanks to exciting future technology trends. This book provides a detailed and up-to-date overview of the field. It begins with essential information on macular anatomy and pathophysiology, examination techniques, and surgical instrumentation. In turn, it discusses a broad range of disease processes, including macular holes, epiretinal membrane, vitreomacular traction and myopic maculopathy. The role and benefits of advanced vitrectomy techniques including submacular surgery, prosthetic vision, robotic surgery, and stem cell and gene therapy are addressed in detail. A review of perioperative care and potential complications rounds out the coverage.

Fluorescein angiography provides the ophthalmologist with valuable diagnostics information on retinal blood flow, and permits diagnosis of a wide range of eye disorders including macular disease, diabetes, tumours and retinal detachment. This book, now retitled, has been completely updated, revised and redesigned to give more details on techniques and the interpretation of results obtained. New to this book: * the existing text has been expanded and updated * there is a new chapter on digital and video angiography * there is a new section on pitfalls * the layout has been redesigned for greater clarity * the book contains more information on fundus angiography in clinical practice * there is more information on the anatomy of the ocular vascular system * there are two new chapters on diabetes and age related macular degeneration The book will continue to be an indispensible guide for the practising and trainee ophthalmologist.

This is the only text available that is devoted exclusively to the ICG imaging technique, its methods and findings. It provides an invaluable guide to this new diagnostic/research tool.

Fundus Fluorescein and Indocyanine Green Angiography: A Textbook and Atlas is a complete and detailed reference that comprehensively covers fluorescein angiography, the more recent and advancing indocyanine green angiography and their effectiveness in identifying and evaluating various retinal diseases. Prof. Amar Agarwal has teamed up with more than 30 retina specialists to provide eyecare professionals with the most current and essential information for the successful employment and accurate interpretation of these vital diagnostic tests. Sections inside the book include: - Basics and principles - Macular diseases - Vascular retinal diseases - Non vascular retinal diseases - Optic nerve disorders This timely reference uses a unique textbook and atlas format to convey its key points and includes over 550 images and photographs to provide a visual representation of the disease process. Also included is an accompanying CD-ROM with over 35 minutes of supplemental video. Topics on video CD-ROM include: - Fundus fluorescein angiography - Indocyanine green angiography - Optical coherence tomography - Mirror telescopic IOL for macular degenerations With fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography continuing to grow as important and critical diagnostic tests, Fundus Fluorescein and Indocyanine Green Angiography: A Textbook and Atlas will keep ophthalmologists, retina specialists, and optometrists on the cutting edge in today's fast-paced and ever-changing industry. Some topics covered inside include: - Evolution of angiography - Instrumentation - Normal angiograms - Macular holes - Tumors - OCT and spectral OCT

This Atlas of Inherited Retinal Disorders provides a thorough overview of various inherited retinal dystrophies with emphasis on phenotype characteristics and how they relate to the most frequently encountered genes. It also meets the previously unmet needs of PhD students who will benefit from seeing the phenotypes of genes they work on and study. Further, because genetic-testing costs are quite high and spiraling higher, this Atlas will help geneticists familiarize themselves with the candidate gene approach to test patients’ genomes, enabling more cost-efficient testing. This invaluable atlas is organized into eight sections starting with an introduction to the basic knowledge on retinal imaging, followed by diseases listed according to inheritance pattern and disorders with extraocular manifestations grouped by defining features. This structure will be intuitive to clinicians and students studying inherited retinal disorders.
