The ability to diagnose and treat retinal disease is dependent on a thorough understanding of the normal anatomy. In fact, a critical early milestone in the learning process is simply recognizing when something is not normal, regardless of what the abnormality actually is. This is a challenging task given the tremendous variability that exists among individuals. In Chap. 1 , the anatomy is reviewed from a clinical perspective, using common ancillary testing modalities to emphasize both normal and abnormal findings. A variety of conditions that impact the macula, peripheral retina, retinal and choroidal circulations, and vitreous and optic nerve are provided to highlight specific anatomical locations and structures.

摘要

The ability to diagnose and treat retinal disease is dependent on a thorough understanding of the normal anatomy. In fact, a critical early milestone in the learning process is simply recognizing when something is not normal, regardless of what the abnormality actually is. This is a challenging task given the tremendous variability that exists among individuals. In Chap. 1 , the anatomy is reviewed from a clinical perspective, using common ancillary testing modalities to emphasize both normal and abnormal findings. A variety of conditions that impact the macula, peripheral retina, retinal and choroidal circulations, and vitreous and optic nerve are provided to highlight specific anatomical locations and structures.
