TI  - Sub-foveal choroidal blood flow by LDF: measurement and application to the 
      physiology and pathology of the choroidal circulation.
PG  - 185-94
AB  - Laser Doppler flowmetry allows the measurement of relative choroidal blood flow 
      in the sub-foveal region of the fundus (ChBF). This technique has been applied to 
      the investigation of the regulation of ChBF in response to a variety of 
      physiological stimuli (breathing different gas mixtures of O2 and CO2, varying 
      the systemic and ocular blood perfusion pressures, light-dark transition and zero 
      gravity) in normal subjects. Measurements in pathological conditions, such as 
      diabetes, age-related macular degeneration and glaucoma indicate alterations of 
      the response of ChBF to increased systemic blood pressure. The data provide a 
      better understanding of the regulation of the choroidal circulation in the normal 
      and diseased eye.
