To review advanced retinal photography and computer-assisted image analysis techniques used to quantify microvascular alterations and evaluate systemic vascular disease risk.
Synthesized literature on advanced retinal photographic imaging and computer-assisted image analysis used to measure microvascular structural variations.
Evaluated associations between qualitative and quantitative retinal vascular signs and systemic cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and metabolic outcomes.
Quantitative and qualitative retinal microvascular abnormalities associate closely with both clinical and subclinical cerebrovascular, cardiovascular, and metabolic disorders.
Retinal microvascular imaging serves as a noninvasive modality to investigate microvascular pathophysiology and enhance cardiovascular risk prediction.
