Understanding Fluorescein Angiography, Fluoreszeinangiografie verstehen, Entendiendo Angiografía con Fluoresceína

Fluorescein angiography is an indispensable tool in modern ophthalmology. The technique is based on evaluation of the behavior in the tissues of the ocular fundus of intravenously administered sodium fluorescein. This unique and highly illustrated text deals with the morphological prerequisites and structural changes on which the individual phenomena involved in this behavior are based. Written by an internationally renowned expert, it features 3 languages in one book: English, German and Spanish color-coded for ease of access. The retina specialist, the general ophthalmologist, and the basic scientist will all find valuable information in this book. Readers will be able to improve their understanding of the nature and mechanisms of the underlying disorders and their management and treatment of choroidal and vascular and other retinal diseases.

Written by a famous and international renowned expert 3 languages in one book: English, German and Spanish colour-coded in this book Unique book focusing on the understanding of Fluorescein angiography not only the mere patterns of the phenomena specific to these diseases Richly illustrated
