  • Title: [The importance of fluorescein angiography in the diagnosis of Stargardt's mascular degeneration (author's transl)].
    Author: Hammerstein W, Leide E.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1981 Jan; 178(1):20-3. PubMed ID: 7230673.
    Abstract:
    A comparison between the fundus photographs and the fluorescein angiogram at the beginning of this disease shows the great informative value of fluorescein angiography. At first the distinct functional losses are most important; ophthalmoscopically, only slight pigment irregularities are discernible. In the fluorescein angiogram the picture of fundus flavimaculatus is already distinguishable at this stage of the disease. These findings led support to the view that Stargardt's macular degeneration and fundus flavimaculatus are identical.
