Abstract

Choroidal layer, that comprises the posterior part of uveal tissue and is responsible for the nutrition of posterior third of retina, has the highest blood flow per unit tissue. Metabolic diseases like hypertension, diabetes and systemic diseases such as hemoglobinopathies, blood dyscrasias and autoimmune diseases may effect this highly vascular tissue. Thus new developments in imaging technology and evaluation of choridal structure and vasculature may provide new tools for early diagnosis and follow up of several systemic pathologies.

Özet

Retina dış 1/3’ünün beslenmesinden sorumlu olan ve üveal yapının arka kısmını oluşturan koroid, birim doku başına kan akımının fazla olduğu bir dokudur. Hipertansiyon, diyabet gibi metabolik hastalıklar, hemoglobinopatiler, kan diskrazileri, otoimmün hastalıklar ve sistemik daha bir çok hastalık damarlardan zengin bu yapıda değişiklikler oluşturur. Günümüzde görüntüleme yöntemlerindeki gelişmelerle beraber koroidin ve vasküler patolojilerin değerlendirilmesi birçok sistemik patolojide erken tanı ve takipte önemli kolaylıklar sağlamaktadır.
