Applicability of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging in Parkinson’s disease

Abstract To evaluate the significance of motion artifacts in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) images of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and healthy controls. In this prospective, cross-sectional study subjects with medicated PD (ON) and healthy, age- and gender-matched voluntee...
