Interventional case series including 23 eyes of 15 patients with diagnosis of a specific type of retinochoroiditis, such as acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE), serpiginous-like choroiditis, multifocal choroiditis (MFC), Harada disease, and syphilitic retinochoroiditis. Also, some cases with undefined retinochoroiditis were included. FAF and ICGA were performed and correlated at baseline and during follow-up after treatment.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. In ICGA, early hypofluorescence was found to be the hallmark of acute choroidal inflammation, resolving in later stages and remaining in the late phase in areas with retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) damage. Poorly defined hyperautofluorescent areas correlated with acute choroidal lesions. Hypoautofluorescent delineation suggested the initiation of RPE healing processes, correlating well with the late phase of ICGA and delineating the RPE damage. Early hyperautofluorescence with late hypofluorescence in ICGA indicated the presence of primary RPE involvement.<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. FAF contributes to the interpretation of RPE disease and may be a useful tool for the follow-up of progressive inflammatory disorders. Comparative evaluation of FAF and ICGA allows a characterization of the sequence of inflammatory events and the level of tissue affected.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2015\/247469","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,1,28]],"date-time":"2015-01-28T16:01:34Z","timestamp":1422460894000},"page":"1-11","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["The Role of Fundus Autofluorescence Imaging in the Study of the Course of Posterior Uveitis Disorders"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2015","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8313-0561","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Panagiotis","family":"Malamos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Ocular Immunology and Inflammation Service, \u201cG.
