Autofluorescence distribution associated with drusen in age-related macular degenerationF C Delori
Schepens Eye Research Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA

Bimodal spatial distribution of macular pigment: evidence of a gender relationshipFrancois C Delori
Schepens Eye Research Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
J Opt Soc Am A Opt Image Sci Vis 23:521-38. 2006..Evidence that the shape of the foveal depression may be gender related leads us to hypothesize that differences in macular pigment distribution are related to anatomical differences in the shape of the foveal depression...

- NON-INVASIVE MEASUREMENT OF RPE LIPOFUSCINFrancois DeLori; Fiscal Year: 2005..The proposed studies will provide needed data on relationships among AMD, lipofuscin and macular pigment, estimate genetic contribution to the latter, and assist identification of individuals at greatest risk for vision loss. ..
- NONINVASIVE MEASUREMENT OF RPE LIPOFUSCINFrancois DeLori; Fiscal Year: 1993..Determine whether atrophic regions are bounded by regions of elevated lipofuscin, and whether extreme levels of lipofuscin identify retinal regions at risk for subsequent atrophy and/or neovascularization...
