This book offers a current overview of state-of-the-art advances using optical coherence tomography (OCT) re-grading neuronal loss within the retina. Detailed information on the OCT imaging and interpretation is provided for the evaluation of disease progression in numerous neurodegenerative disorders and as a biological marker of neuroaxonal injury. Covering disorders like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson?s disease, Alzheimer?s disease, intracranial hypertension, Friedreich?s ataxia, schizophrenia, hereditary optic neuropathies, glaucoma, and amblyopia, readers will be given insights into effects on the retina and the and optic nerve. Individual chapters are also devoted to OCT technique, new OCT technology in neuro-ophthalmology, OCT and pharmacological treatment, and the use of OCT in animal models.
OCT and Imaging in Central Nervous System Diseases, 3rd Edition is a richly illustrated reference for the diagnosis of many retinal diseases andmonitoring of surgical and medical treatment. By documenting the ability of OCT to provide key information on CNS diseases, this book illustrates convincingly that the eye is indeed the ?window to the brain?.
