Description Dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) provides a painless and quick measurement of ocular pulse amplitude (OPA), which can reflect; ocular perfusion. Primary aim: to delineate the role of DCT in giant cell arteritis (GCA) suspects undergoing temporal artery biopsy (TABx). We hypothesize a diminished OPA in patients with positive TABx compared to patients with negative TABx. Secondary aim: to develop a logistic regression risk score for GCA using the a priori objective criteria of age, OPA, and C-reactive protein (CRP).
