Reproducibility of Dual Beam Doppler Fourier-domain Optical Coherence Tomography in Healthy Subjects

Ocular Blood Flow Clinical Trial

Official title: Short- and Long-term Reproducibility of Dual Beam Doppler Fourier-domain Optical Coherence Tomography Measurements in Healthy Subjects - a Pilot Study

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Dual beam Doppler Fourier-domain Optical coherence tomography (DOCT) is a noninvasive technique to quantify total retinal blood flow.

To enable further development of this technique it is essential to assess short- and long-term reproducibility of DOCT blood flow measurements.

Clinical Trial Description

In the present study, total retinal blood flow will be measured with DOCT at multiple time points to gain information of short- and long-term reproducibility. In addition, provocation with flickering light will be performed, which is known to lead to vasodilatation and an increase in retinal blood flow in healthy subjects. Vessel diameters will also be measured using the Dynamic Vessel Analyzer (DVA). ;
