Part A shows results from an analysis of variance among the different atrophic areas, specifically areas with RPE atrophy with and without outer nuclear layer atrophy, compared with unaffected areas. Part B shows Bonferroni-corrected P values of differences between hyperfluorescent areas and atrophic areas, as well as hyperfluorescent areas and unaffected areas. Both spectral channels (SSC, 498–560 nm; LSC, 560–720 nm) are shown.
