Figure 3.
Representative short-wavelength fundus autofluorescence (SW-AF), near-infrared fundus autofluorescence (NIR-AF), near-infrared reflectance (NIR-R) and color fundus images obtained from RP patients. The dotted lines indicate the outer border of the AF ring. Note the appearance of the AF ring in various modalities. Interior to the ring, there is brightness in the NIR-AF image and relative darkness in the SW-AF image. The zone of reduced melanin in the RPE monolayer (yellow arrows) permits choroidal vessel visibility.
