Abstract
A commercial electronic subtraction unit originally intended for the study of roentgenograms was used to produce subtraction pictures of fundus fluorescein angiographies. No modifications were needed to make good quality subtraction pictures. The method is fast and inexpensive in contrast to photographic methods. Certain limitations of the present equipment and some possibilities for further development of the apparatus are discussed. The method is especially suitable for studies on dynamic processes in the [human] eye and should prove valuable in the long-term follow-up of chronic disease such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy.
