本文的目的是描述年龄相关性黄斑变性(AMD)表型的红外(IR)反射成像的表现。视网膜的红外反射成像有可能突出特定的视网膜下特征和病理。然而，它在黄斑疾病中的作用，特别是AMD，经常被低估，需要澄清。临床方法、影像和科学知识的最新进展可以结合起来，以提高AMD疾病分层的准确性。特别是，红外成像对检测网状假性红斑狼疮具有未被充分利用的敏感性，网状假性红斑狼疮一再被描述为晚期AMD的高危征象。本文提供了使用红外反射成像的AMD表型的临床相关描述。这一发现与眼睛健康中心看到的病例的图像相结合。由于初级眼科护理提供者在AMD的检测、诊断和管理中发挥着关键作用，我们还提供了座椅侧参考，以帮助临床医生解读AMD的IR图像。
The purpose of this article is to describe the appearance of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) phenotypes using infrared (IR) reflectance imaging. IR reflectance imaging of the retina has the potential to highlight specific sub‐retinal features and pathology. However, its role in macular disease, specifically AMD, is often underestimated and requires clarification. Recent advances in clinical methods, imaging and scientific knowledge may be integrated to improve the accuracy of disease stratification in AMD. In particular, IR imaging holds an underutilised sensitivity to detect reticular pseudodrusen, which have been repeatedly described as a high‐risk sign for late AMD. This article provides clinically relevant descriptions of AMD phenotypes using IR reflectance imaging. The findings are integrated with images from cases seen at the Centre for Eye Health. As primary eye‐care providers assume a critical role in the detection, diagnosis and management of AMD, we also provide a chair‐side reference to assist clinicians in interpreting IR images in AMD.
