  2. Fluorescein angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescein_angiography

    The fluorescein is administered intravenously in intravenous fluorescein angiography (IVFA) and orally in oral fluorescein angiography (OFA). The test is a dye tracing method. The fluorescein dye also reappears in the patient urine, causing the urine to appear darker, and sometimes orange. [2] It can also cause discolouration of the saliva.

  3. Lea test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lea_test

    The first version of the LEA test was developed in 1976 by Finnish pediatric ophthalmologist Lea Hyvärinen, MD, PhD. Dr. Hyvärinen completed her thesis on fluorescein angiography and helped start the first clinical laboratory in that area while serving as a fellow at the Wilmer Eye Institute of Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1967.

  4. Vascular surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_surgery

    A recent trend in the United States is the stand-alone day angiography facility associated with a private vascular surgery clinic, thus allowing treatment of most arterial endovascular cases conveniently and possibly with lesser overall community cost.

  5. Fluorescein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescein

    Fluorescein is a fluorophore commonly used in microscopy, in a type of dye laser as the gain medium, in forensics and serology to detect latent blood stains, and in dye tracing. Fluorescein has an absorption maximum at 494 nm and emission maximum of 512 nm (in water).

  6. Angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiography

    Angiography or arteriography is a medical imaging technique used to visualize the inside, or lumen, of blood vessels and organs of the body, with particular interest in the arteries, veins, and the heart chambers.

  7. Digital subtraction angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Digital_subtraction_angiography

    Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a fluoroscopy technique used in interventional radiology to clearly visualize blood vessels in a bony or dense soft tissue environment. Images are produced using contrast medium by subtracting a "pre-contrast image" or mask from subsequent images, once the contrast medium has been introduced into a ...

  8. Fundus photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundus_photography

    Red free photography is also regularly used as a base line photo prior to Angiography. [13] Angiography is a process of photographing/recording vascular flow within the retina and surrounding tissue by injecting a fluorescent dye into the blood stream. This dye fluoresces a different colour when light from a specific wavelength (excitation ...

  9. Indocyanine green - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indocyanine_green

    It is used for determining cardiac output, hepatic function, liver and gastric blood flow, and for ophthalmic and cerebral angiography. [4] It has a peak spectral absorption at about 800 nm. [5] These infrared frequencies penetrate retinal layers, allowing ICG angiography to image deeper patterns of circulation than fluorescein angiography. [6]
