Ischemia and Loss of Vascular Autoregulation in Ocular and Cerebral Diseases A New Perspective

Ischemia and Loss of Vascular Autoregulation in Ocular and Cerebral Diseases A New Perspective / by Maurice E. Langham.

Ischemia and Loss of Vascular Autoregulation in Ocular and Cerebral Diseases: A New Perspective presents evidence that ischemia and loss of autoregulation of blood flow are associated with the onset of the major ocular and cerebral diseases including macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, low a...
