DataSheet_1_Retinal imaging in animal models: Searching for biomarkers of neurodegeneration.pdf

Version 1
Description

There is a pressing need for novel diagnostic and progression biomarkers of neurodegeneration. However, the inability to determine disease duration and stage in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) hinders their discovery. Because animal models of disease allow us to circumvent some of these limitations, they have proven to be of paramount importance in clinical research. Due to the clear optics of the eye, the retina combined with optical coherence tomography (OCT) offers the perfect opportun
