[Abstract] With the development of imaging techniques, resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) has been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of ophthalmic diseases. In visual research, fMRI can directly locate the cortical function related to visual formation. Regional homogeneity (ReHo) is one of the research methods of rs-fMRI, which has been widely used to study local spontaneous synchronous signals in fMRI imaging. It provides a new way of understanding the relationship between the characteristics of ocular diseases and the changes of local brain functional areas. The application of ReHo in ophthalmic diseases is summarized as follows. |
