Mohammed Younis, Robert D. Slater, Caleb Pacheco, Sairi Zhang, Rick Voland, Rachel E. Linderman, Roomasa Channa, Amitha Domalpally Abstract Purpose: To develop and validate a transfer learning model for measuring geographic atrophy (GA) area using ultrawide field (UWF) fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging. The model was initially trained and validated on Heidelberg Spectralis images and subsequently …
Mary Wilda, Rachel Halweg, Cynthia Hurtenbach, Kristi Dohm, Justin Parks, Ruth Shaw, Sheila Watson, Kari Moseman, Rick Voland, Barbara A. Blodi Abstract Purpose: To investigate the reproducibility of nonperfusion area measurements from ultrawide field fluorescein angiograms (UWF-FA) within each zone of the NetwORC grid and the reproducibility of change over time within each zone assessed …
Robert D. Slater, Apoorva Safai, Madeline Pflasterer-Jennerjohn, Jennifer Heathcote, Rachel E. Linderman, Pallavi Tiwari, Emily Chew, Amitha Domalpally Abstract Purpose: Geographic atrophy (GA) is the end stage of non-exudative AMD. Prevention strategies are essential to delay or prevent GA development. Identifying precursors of GA can help target individuals at risk and develop effective interventions. The …
Justin Bitner, Jeong W. Pak, Jessica Berg, Rick Voland, Ronald Danis, David Bingaman, Yijun Huang, Amitha Domalpally Abstract Purpose: To quantify geographic atrophy (GA) lesion area using the en face image of outer retina-choroid (ORC) derived from spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) volume scans and to compare GA measurements among ORC, OCT, and fundus autofluorescence …
Britney A. Naolhu, Sairi Zhang, Jeong W. Pak, Rick Voland, Amitha Domalpally, Collin Rich, Mihai Mititelu Abstract Purpose: Mitochondrial dysfunction from oxidative stress disrupts retinal metabolic function, leading to diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD). This study evaluates flavoprotein fluorescence (FPF), a novel biomarker of retinal distress, as a functional assessment tool for macular …
