Abstract
Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) has recently disclosed a new diagnostic approach to ARMD1–15. The characteristics of the dye, which is fluorescent in the near infrared and wholely bound to blood proteins, have already proved useful for investigating choroidal abnormalities, besides haemorrhages, turbid fluids and retinal pigment epithelium. The method, therefore, appears indicated in exudative ARMD when occult choroidal new vessels are suspected.
