Objective area measurement technique for choroidal neovascularization from fluorescein angiography.

The purpose of this study was to develop a non-biased method of quantitatively measuring choroidal neovascularization (CNV) areas based on late-phase fluorescein angiography (FA) images. Experimental CNV was induced in Long Evans rats by laser disruption of the Bruch's membrane. FA was performed weekly for 5weeks.
