Duke Eye Center
New research from Duke Eye Center suggests loss of blood vessels in the retina could signal Alzheimer's disease. On the left, the retina of a healthy person shows a dense web of blood vessels, the highest-density areas highlighted in red and orange. On the right, the retina of a person with Alzheimer's disease shows areas in blue and teal where blood vessels are least dense. The images were captured using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
