Research status and progress of the application of multicolor imaging in the diagnosis of ocular fundus diseases / 中华眼底病杂志

Multicolor imaging (MCI) based on confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy can gather more diagnostic information than traditional fundus photographs through utilizing three wavelengths of laser to scan posterior retina, which gain different layer reflected signal since the depth of penetration into retina is different for each wavelength. Currently, it provides important information and reference value for diagnose of different layer diseases on retina or choroid combining MCI with OCT, FAF, FFA and so on. However, there are still misunderstandings in the diagnosis of retinal diseases with MCI. Careful observation of retinal details in MCI, CFP and other imaging methods is more conducive to the correct diagnosis of fundus ophthalmopathy.
