Anti-VEGF Use in Ophthalmology
Autor Jay Duker, Michelle Liangen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 mai 2017
Drs. Jay S. Duker and Michelle C. Liang have assembled a prestigious group of contributors who pool their collective expertise in this comprehensive book. Anti-VEGF Use in Ophthalmology is split into two sections with the first providing the history of VEGF and an overview of anti-VEGF agents and different routes of drug delivery, as it is important for eye care providers to be familiar with up-to-date aspects of the medications and indications for use.
The second section details the clinical uses of anti-VEGF agents in numerous ocular diseases, from the anterior segment including cornea and glaucoma to uveitis and various retinal and choroidal diseases. Each chapter in this section summarizes the disease process and utilizes high-quality ocular imaging to demonstrate the therapeutic use of the anti-VEGF agents.
Some of the topics covered in Anti-VEGF Use in Ophthalmology:
- Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
- Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy
- Retinal Vein Occlusion
- Uveitis
- Neovascular Glaucoma
- Macular Edema
- Retinopathy of Prematurity
- Corneal Disease
