Fractal and multifractal analysis of human retinal vascular network: a reviewKeywords: retina , retinal microcirculation , fractal and multifractal analysis , fractal dimension Abstract: The objective of this paper is to present a synthesis concerning the results obtained in fractaland multifractal analysis of vascular network geometry of the human retina. The numerical results areuseful in mathematical models based on parametric representations, used in vitreo-retinal biomechanicalstudies. The fractal and multifractal analysis of retinal vascular network provides noninvasive powerfultools that allow physicians the early detection of patients with different retinal vascular diseases.
