Choriocapillaris microvasculature dysfunction in systemic hypertension
Abstract We examined the choriocapillaris microvasculature using a non-invasive swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) in 41 healthy controls and 71 hypertensive patients and determined possible correlations with BP and renal parameters. BP levels, serum creatinine and urine...
