Description Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with cognitive symptoms appearing long after neural degeneration has begun. Accumulating evidence implicates vascular dysfunction in AD pathogenesis, but assessing the cerebral microvasculature is difficult. The microvasculature in retina and brain are similar anatomically and physiologically. In this project, optic coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) was used to quantitatively analyze the retinal microvascular network density in patients with AD or mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
