Simplified diagnosis of rare eye diseases - EurekAlert


<p><strong>Uveitis is a rare inflammatory eye disease. Posterior and panuveitis in particular are associated with a poor prognosis and a protracted course of the disease. Diagnosis and monitoring can be challenging for healthcare professionals. Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) is a fast and non-invasive imaging technique that supports this. Researchers from the University Hospital Bonn and the University of Bonn, together with experts </strong><strong>from Berlin, M&uuml;nster and Mannheim, </strong><strong>have drafted</strong><strong> a review on how FAF can facilitate the diagnosis and monitoring of posterior uveitis and panuveitis. </strong><strong>The results have now been published in the journal &quot;Biomolecules&quot;.</strong></p>
