Researchers at Laval University and the CERVO Brain Research Center in Québec have developed a groundbreaking, non-invasive method to diagnose Parkinson’s disease (PD) early using a simple eye scan.

Researchers have identified novel retinal vascular signatures that are significantly associated with the risk for a first stroke. When combined with age and sex, these retinal “fingerprints” predicted ...

We’ve been looking at the wrong part of the eye. New research shows the earliest signs of Alzheimer's are hidden at the very edges of the retina.

Medical science has taken a remarkable leap forward in stroke prevention with the discovery that our eyes may hold the key to predicting stroke risk. Leading researchers have identified a ...

Simultaneous screening for liver fibrosis during retinal scanning shows promise as a novel pathway for detecting advanced liver disease in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). International guidelines ...

A team of researchers in the UK has developed a fully automated artificial intelligence-enabled system that can scan retinal images for vascular health, helping identify those at high risk of heart ...

In the future, a two-minute retina scan could let doctors spot eye diseases—or even the risk to develop them—long before any symptoms appear. "With more lead time, therapies and interventions have a ...

Consultation with optometrist with optical coherence tomography OCT scan to create pictures of the back of eye. Examination of eyes of patient using optical coherence tomograph Eye scans looking at ...

The retina is the only organ where blood vessels are directly seen without any invasive measures. A South Korean startup, Mediwhale, wants to use artificial intelligence (AI) to diagnose kidney ...

Mediwhale co-founder and CEO Kevin Choi discovered that he had lost vision in nearly half of one of his eyes from glaucoma when he was 24, which is rare in young people. "I was devastated and could ...
