Abnormality of retinal arterial velocity profiles using Doppler Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography in a case of Takayasu's arteritis with aortic regurgitation

The current study showed for the first time that segmental-scanning DOCT flowmeter enables evaluation of an abnormal flow pattern of the RVBP in the retinal arterioles in a patient with TA and AR. Measurement of the retinal arterial blood flow may detect aortic valve dysfunction and shed light on the pathogenesis of TR.
