Abstract

In-vitro immunofluorescent assays/imaging are routinely used methods of detecting antigens. The ability to perform ocular angiography to study the choroidal and retinal vasculature in real time provides us with a unique opportunity to perform real time in-vivo immunofluorescent imaging. This unique combination of in-vivo immunofluorescent imaging and live imaging of choroidal and retinal circulation can help detect antigens of infective organisms in-vivo to diagnose causative infective aetiology in cases of choroiditis/retinitis. The following paper describes the basic designing of such an imaging platform. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
