TWO-PHOTON MICROSCOPY IMAGING RETINA CELL DAMAGE

摘要

A method of determining retinal degeneration of photoreceptors and/or the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of a subject includes measuring two-photon induced fluorescence inner and/or outer segments of the photoreceptor cells and/or retinal pigment epithelium to assess photoreceptor cell death and retinal pigment epithelium cell death or degeneration.
