2015年9月15日 · With its relative ease of use, noninvasive technique and ability to aid in the diagnosis and management of a variety of retinal disorders, fundus autofluorescence (FAF) has increasingly become a mainstream imaging modality.

Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) is a non-invasive imaging modality that has become increasingly popular in both research and clinical settings due to its ability to map naturally and pathologically occurring fluorophores in the posterior pole.

Daytona produces a 200° single-capture opto map retinal image of unrivaled clarity in less than ½ second. This fast, easy, patient friendly, ultra-widefield imaging technology was designed for healthy eye screening and has been shown to improve practice flow and patient engagement.

Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging is based on detecting physiologically and pathologically occurring fluorophores primarily in the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) to map the metabolic profile of the fundus.

2012年9月1日 · FAF imaging can be used to view only the posterior pole or all the way out to the periphery of the retina. For the latter, “You need a wide-field imaging platform such as the Optos system, which has the capability of scanning to 200 degrees,” said Dr. Kiss.

2018年9月25日 · FAF is useful in determining whether a condition is latent or progressing to healthier areas of the retina, and ultra-widefield fundus autofluorescence (UWF FAF) imaging has provided new opportunities to observe and document changes in the far periphery.

2011年1月1日 · Although it is an SLO system, the Optos FAF acquires images using green light, similar to flash-camera FAF. Recently, we have observed that peripheral AF abnormalities are quite common, present in over 70% of patients in a recent series at our institute.

What is Fundus Autofluorescence (FAF)? FAF is an imaging modality used to provide information on the health and function of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Over time, the retinal photoreceptors naturally age and produce a metabolic waste known as lipofuscin. Lipofuscin is the fatty substance found in the RPE.

2024年12月3日 · 眼底自发荧光（FAF）是地图样萎缩（GA）监测的重要手段，广泛应用于临床和临床试验中。 标准的30度视野成像（Heidelberg Engineering）使用蓝光激发产生FAF图像，而超广角FAF成像（Optos）则能够提供单张图像200度的视野，并使用绿光激发。

Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging is based on the fluorescence from ocular endogenous fluorophores located in the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid, mainly lipofuscin and melanin. It is a noninvasive technique that provides information about the spatial distribution of lipofuscin/melanin and retinal pigment epithelium health status.
