Lifetime Standard for Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Ophthalmoscopy

Key Points

• The aim is to establish a standard practice for verifying the performance of fluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy (FLIO) instruments.
• Developed a subject-free verification procedure for instrument performance.
• Proposed a troubleshooting approach for performance shortfalls.
• Outlined a framework for multicenter trials and data intercomparison.
• Demonstrated that the method effectively verifies instrument specifications.
• Identified potential causes of performance issues across different devices.
• Facilitated a framework for standardized data collection in multicenter settings.
