Popis: Background: In healthy persons, fundus autofluorescence (AF) intensity diminishes after age 70 [ref:1], with the underlying mechanisms still unknown. In age-related macular degeneration (AMD), hypoautofluorescent areas in fundus AF-imaging are often referred to as retinal pigment epithelium[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
