Recent advances in fluorescein fundus angiography

Since MacLean and Maumenee (I960) first examined the fundus of patients with slit-lamp and indirect ophthalmoscopy after the injection of 5 per cent. intravenous sodium fluorescein, and Novotny and Alvis (I96I) made the first successful photographs of the passage of dye through the retinal, vessels with a modified fundus camera, fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA) has come to occupy a unique p...

Fundus photography and fluorescein angiography Fluorescein angiography

Fluorescein angiography is a clinical diagnostic test procedure in which rapid-sequence photography is performed after intravenous injection of sodium fluorescein. The procedure allows the documentation of the retinal circulation. Of equal importance is the ability of the angiogram to outline the entire retinal vascular bed. Previous clinical methods of examination of the fundus enabled the phy...

Caption: Pyramidal neurons, light micrograph with Nissl staining. This sample, from a human brain, shows two pyramidal neurons. Pyramidal neurons (nerve cells) have a triangular cell body with dendrites leading from two of their corners and one long axon (bottom) extending from the other. The cell nuclei (round, dark) are visible here. Information from the dendrites is processed by the cell bod...
