Abstract:Even in the early stage, endocrine metabolism disease may lead to micro aneurysms in retinal capillaries whose diameters are less than 10 µm. However, the fundus cameras used in clinic diagnosis can only obtain images of vessels larger than 20 µm in diameter. The human retina is a thin and multiple layer tissue, and the layer of capillaries less than 10 µm in diameter only exists in the inner nuclear layer. The layer thickness of capillaries less than 10 µm in diameter is about 40 µm and the distance range to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
