No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in Trinidad and Tobago. Early detection and management can help improve morbidity and mortality. Retinal artery microvascular disease has been shown to directly correlate with coronary artery disease. Retinal artery calibre screening via the Optic Coherence Tomography (OCT) will provide a non-invasive method of diagnosing CAD.
