Green-Light Autofluorescence Versus Combined Blue-Light Autofluorescence and Near-Infrared Reflectance Imaging in Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration.
Purpose To compare the intermodality and interreader agreement for geographic atrophy (GA) lesion size quantification in green-light fundus autofluorescence (GAF; excitation = 518 nm) versus combined blue-light fundus autofluorescence (BAF; excitation = 488 nm) and near-infrared reflectance (NIR; 820 nm) -based grading. Methods Confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (cSLO) GAF, BAF, and NIR i...
متن کاملHuman lens transmission of blue light: a comparison of autofluorescence-based and direct spectral transmission determination.
PURPOSE Direct measurement of the transmission of light through the human lens is not possible in vivo unless invasive techniques are used. In the current study, a reliable in vivo estimate of the transmission of blue light through the lens was assessed by comparing an indirect and noninvasive method based on autofluorescence measurements with a direct method. METHODS Total transmission of bl...
متن کاملBlue light and near-infrared fundus autofluorescence in acute Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease.
BACKGROUND/AIMS To investigate the characteristics of fundus autofluorescence (FAF) in acute Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease. METHODS FAF photography with blue light (BL-FAF) and near-infrared light (NIR-FAF) was performed on 10 eyes of five patients using a confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope before and after treatment. The FAF images were followed for 6 months and retrospectively revi...
متن کاملComparison of Short-Wavelength Reduced-Illuminance and Conventional Autofluorescence Imaging in Stargardt Macular Dystrophy
PURPOSE To compare grading results between short-wavelength reduced-illuminance and conventional autofluorescence imaging in Stargardt macular dystrophy. DESIGN Reliability study. METHODS setting: Moorfields Eye Hospital, London (United Kingdom). PATIENTS Eighteen patients (18 eyes) with Stargardt macular dystrophy. OBSERVATION PROCEDURES A series of 3 fundus autofluorescence images usi...
متن کاملNew Light in Flavin Autofluorescence
Our attention was captured by the interesting debate on the identification of lipofuscins, lipofuscin-like lipopigments, or flavins as the responsible for intracellular autofluorescence (AF) detected in epithelial cancer stem cells when exciting at 480-490 nm. Evidence was provided leading to ascribe AF emission to flavins accumulating in cytoplasmic structures, bounded to membranes and bearing...
