CDGAS was determined with the MD3RI tool for contour drawing in a central region of digitized fundus photographs, measuring 3,000 \u00b5m in diameter. To evaluate CDGAS progression, differences in pixels and square millimeters were calculated by equivalent tests. <b><i>Results:<\/i><\/b> Forty-nine patients completed the visits over the 12-month period (ES = 27 and CO = 22). Mean pixel values increased from 201.5 (11.33 \u00d7 10<sup>\u20133<\/sup> mm<sup>2<\/sup>) to 202.7 (11.39 \u00d7 10<sup>\u20133<\/sup> mm<sup>2<\/sup>) in the ES group and from 191.6 (10.77 \u00d7 10<sup>\u20133<\/sup> mm<sup>2<\/sup>) to 194.6 (10.94 \u00d7 10<sup>\u20133<\/sup> mm<sup>2<\/sup>) in the CO group. Finally, equivalence of CDGAS differences between ES and CO could be demonstrated. No exudative AMD was recorded during the study period. <b><i>Conclusion:<\/i><\/b> In our cohorts, no significant changes were found in CDGAS 12 months after cataract surgery. The MD3RI software could serve as an efficient, precise and objective tool for AMD quantification and monitoring in future trials.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000345492","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,12,10]],"date-time":"2012-12-10T09:03:01Z","timestamp":1355130181000},"page":"86-93","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Monitoring
