Current and future directions for the use of handheld fundus cameras in telehealth.

Introduction: A shortage of trained retinal specialists has created a growing need for a telehealth retinal screening alternative. Recent developments in handheld fundus cameras, enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods, have created a promising avenue to satisfy the unmet need for efficient retinal disease screening. This paper discusses the state of current handheld fundus cameras as well as promising future directions.

Nonoperative Treatment of Lymphedema.

Complex decongestive therapy is the mainstay of lymphedema (LE) therapy. It consists of two phases: an intensive volume reduction phase, principally involving low-stretch bandages and manual lymph drainage (MLD), followed by compression garment use to maintain the reduction achieved. Adjunctive treatments include the use of a sequential gradient pump, LE-specific exercises, skin and nail care, as well as risk-reduction precautions.
