PET-CT Imaging Features of Meibomian Glands

March 21, 2024 updated by: Zhongnan Hospital
Analysis the results of Dry eye analysis results and PET-CT imaging comprehensively

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Medical records of patients who visited the ophthalmology department between January 2021 and December 2023 and had a PET-CT examination in our hospital within one month were collected. The dry eye analysis results of all patients were collected, and the lacrimal river height, tear film rupture time and meibomian gland grade were counted. The results of PET-CT were collected and the SUV values of the tarsal gland were calculated.
