Main description:

Fluorescein angiography is an eye test that uses a special dye and camera to look at blood flow in the retina and choroid, the two layers in the back of the eye (MedlinePlus).

This book is a practical guide to the interpretation of fluorescein angiography images and subsequent diagnosis of retinal disorders.

The second edition has been fully revised and updated to provide the latest advances in the field. New topics including retinal periphery and ocular oncology, and new images have been added.

Divided into seven sections, the book covers interpretation of normal and pathological fluorescein angiography, new, dyeless imaging for retina and choroid (OCT and OCT Angiography), pathological fluorescein angiography analytical study, pathological fluorescein angiography synthesis, major fluorescein angiography syndromes posterior pole, study of retinal periphery and the future of fluorescein angiography.

Written by internationally recognised specialists Marco Rispoli and Bruno Lumbroso from Rome Eye Hospital and Centro Oftalmologico Mediterraneo, this handbook is highly illustrated with angiograph images and tables to help trainees and clinicians recognise and interpret angiographic findings and make an accurate diagnosis of ophthalmic disorders.

The previous edition (9789350909911) published in 2014.
