Abstract
Using a digital fundus imaging system, serial fluorescein angiograms w ere obtained. Single-frame images from each study were combined using a commercially available ''morphing'' software package to create motio n picture images that simulate time-lapse photography. This is a novel method for evaluating serial angiographic studies that enhances visua lization of subtle changes between studies. Use of this method may off er new insights into such conditions as macular degeneration and diabe tic retinopathy.
