Vascular changes precede tomographic changes in diabetic eyes without retinopathy and improve artificial intelligence diagnostics.

abstract：:For a precise manipulation of particles and cells with laser light as well as for the understanding and the control of the underlying processes it is important to visualize and quantify the response of the specimens. Thus, we investigated if digital holographic microscopy (DHM) can be used in combination with microflu...
