Choroidal absorption angiography with patent blue V.

P N Sorensen

    Acta Ophthalmologica
    |June 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary

    Patent Blue V dye reveals choroidal vascular filling and transcapillary exchange. Its rapid leakage and reabsorption parallel retinal vessel dilution, suggesting diffusion to papillary tissue.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Vascular Biology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Patent Blue V is a vital dye used in medical imaging.
    • Understanding choroidal vascular dynamics is crucial for diagnosing eye conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate choroidal vascular filling events using Patent Blue V.
    • To analyze the relationship between choroidal and retinal circulation.
    • To assess transcapillary exchange in the choroid.

    Main Methods:

    • Intravenous injection of Patent Blue V dye.
    • Serial photography for angiographic imaging.
    • Microdensitometry for quantitative analysis of dye concentration.

    Main Results:

    • Patent Blue V visualizes choroidal vessels, choriocapillaris filling, and transcapillary exchange.
    • Dye leakage and reabsorption were observed to be rapid.
    • Choroidal dilution curves closely paralleled those of retinal vessels.

    Conclusions:

    • Patent Blue V effectively images choroidal vascular dynamics.
    • Rapid dye dynamics suggest efficient transcapillary exchange.
    • Measurements indicate potential diffusion of Patent Blue V from the choroid to the papillary tissue.
