Abstract
Patterns of FAF and NIA indicate different involvement of lipofuscin and melanin and their derivates in the pathophysiologic process of ABCA4-RD. NIA imaging provides a noninvasive in vivo visualization of RPE abnormalities that may precede FAF alterations during the degenerative process. Combined FAF and NIA imaging will provide further insight in the development of ABCA4-RD and could help to monitor future therapeutic interventions.
