Oftalmologia (RETIPROGRAM)

MALALTIES METABÒLIQUES I NUTRICIÓ
OBJECTIUS

El grup de recerca en oftalmologia està focalitzat en dues àrees en concret: la investigació de malalties de la retina d’alta prevalença (retinopatia diabètica, degeneració macular associada a l’edat, miopia i oclusions vasculars) centrant la seva activitat en aconseguir elaborar sistemes d’ajuda a la diagnosi clínica per a aquestes malalties i, alhora, desenvolupar sistemes de lectura automàtica en les mateixes.
