Spectral reflectance of the human ocular fundus
Abstract
Reflectance spectra from discrete sites in the human ocular fundus were measured with an experimental reflectometer in the visible and near-infrared parts of the spectrum. The principal study population consisted of ten subjects 22 to 38 years of age with a wide range of degree of fundus melanin pigmentation. Reflectance spectra were obtained from the nasal fundus, the fovea, and an area 2.5 degrees from the fovea. Spectra were also recorded from several older subjects and from one aphakic patient with a coloboma. The reflectance spectra were found to be influenced by the degree of individual and local melanin pigmentation of the fundus, the amount of blood in the choroid, the transmission properties of the ocular media, and the discrete reflections in the stratified fundus layers. Mathematical models of the optical properties of the stratified layers are proposed and are fitted to the experimental fundus reflectance spectra. The models account for the absorption by blood, melanin, macular pigment, and ocular media, and incorporate tissue scattering and discrete reflectors corresponding to anatomical layers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
