Comparison of peak times of photopic flicker electroretinogram responses recorded using conventional and portable systems in Birdshot chorioretinopathy
Abstract:Purpose
Assessing disease activity in Birdshot uveitis can be challenging. The peak time of the 30 Hz flicker photopic electroretinogram (ERG) was shown to be sensitive for detecting retinal dysfunction. ERG testing is not readily available in many eye units. We investigated use of a portable device to obtain recordings in the clinic setting and compared these with conventional recordings.
Methods
Patients underwent testing with the portable device (RETeval, LKC Technologies) and conventional equipment (Espion… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
