Nghiem AZ, et al. - Researchers compared scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) to colour fundus photographs in terms of the detection of different lesions of diabetic retinopathy within the same retinal field. For 67 eyes, they retrospectively analyzed scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and colour fundus photographs captured on the same day of dilated patients with different grades of diabetic retinopathy. Between SLO and colour fundus photographs, a good correlation in detected microaneurysms, blot haemorrhages and cotton wool spots, was found in this study. However, intergrader variability was present in flame haemorrhage, intraretinal microvascular abnormalities, venous beading and neovascularization grading by both modalities.
