BluePeak Module

Blue Autofluorescence

BluePeak autofluorescence is a non-invasive scanning laser fundus imaging modality that reveals metabolic stress in the retina using lipofuscin as an indicator. BluePeak images can reveal RPE and photoreceptor cell malfunctions, offering diagnostic insights into retinal conditions such as AMD and hereditary diseases.

By combining the segmentation of retinal layers in OCT with the metabolic mapping of BluePeak autofluorescence, morphologic alterations associated with functional change can be seen more clearly.

Fundus autofluorescence patterns in central serous in chorioretinopathy

The study evaluated whether FAF imaging can be used as a supplementary diagnostic tool to predict the chronicity of CSC (duration period of 6 months) and therefore help determine the treatment plan. Further investigations need to be done to identify the disease characteristics in more detail.
