krypton and Histoplasmosis

krypton has been researched along with Histoplasmosis in 7 studies

Krypton: A noble gas that is found in the atmosphere. It has the atomic symbol Kr, atomic number 36, atomic weight 83.80, and has been used in electric bulbs.

Histoplasmosis: Infection resulting from exposure to the fungus HISTOPLASMA. It is worldwide in distribution and particularly common in the central and eastern states, especially areas around the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys.

"The Ocular Histoplasmosis Study-Krypton Laser is a multicenter controlled clinical trial designed to determine whether krypton red laser photocoagulation is of value in preventing visual acuity loss in eyes with ocular histoplasmosis that have either choroidal neovascularization 1 to 199 micron from the center of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) or choroidal neovascularization 200 micron or further from the FAZ center with blood and pigment extending within 200 micron of the FAZ center."9.06Krypton laser photocoagulation for neovascular lesions of ocular histoplasmosis.
