Prognostic value of fluorescein angiography of the fundus in diabetic children

Abstract
A positive fluorescein angiographic (FLAG) finding is a frequent occurrence in ophthalmoscopically negative cases. By repeated FLAG examinations good follow-up of the variability of the finding is possible. After 4–8 years of diabetes, ophthalmoscopically diagnosable retinopathy is to be expected in the patients in whom the initial FLAG examination showed signs of angiopathy.
