STATISTICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF OCULAR BLOOD FLOW UNDER CAROTID ARTERY STENOSIS REFLECT VESSEL IMPAIRMENT AS STROKE BIOMARKER

Atherosclerosis, the major underlying cause of stroke, asymptomatically reduces blood flow to the brain and the eye, resulting in ocular impairment. However, real-time investigation of ocular blood flow (OBF) impairment under common carotid artery (CCA) stenosis is vague. This thesis aims to assess...
