FLIO measurements are taken from 30\u00b0 retinal fields in two spectral channels (short spectral channel (SSC): 498\u2013560 nm, long spectral channel (LSC): 560\u2013720 nm). Because of the layered structure of the eye, the detected signal is an interaction of the fluorescence decay of the anterior part and of the fundus. By comparing FLIO measurements before and after cataract surgery, the impact of the natural lens was proven, despite the application of a confocal laser scanning (cSLO) technique. The goal of this work was to determine the best algorithmic solution to isolate the sole fundus fluorescence lifetime from the measured signal, suppressing artifacts from the natural lens. Three principles based on a tri-exponential model were investigated: a tailfit, a layer-based approach with a temporally shifted component, and the inclusion of a separately measured fluorescence decay of the natural lens. The mean fluorescence lifetime \u03c4<jats:sub>m,12<\/jats:sub> is calculated using only the shortest and the intermediate exponential component. \u03c4<jats:sub>m,all<\/jats:sub> is calculated using all three exponential components. The results of tri-exponential tailfit after cataract surgery were considered as a reference, because the implanted artificial lens can be assumed as non-fluorescent. In SSC, the best accordance of \u03c4<jats:sub>m,all<\/jats:sub> of the reference was determined with \u03c4<jats:sub>m,12<\/jats:sub> of the tailfit before surgery. If high-quality natural lens measurements are available, the correspondence of \u03c4<jats:sub>m,12<\/jats:sub> is best with \u03c4<jats:sub>m,all<\/jats:sub> of the reference. In LSC, there is a good accordance for all models between \u03c4<jats:sub>m,12<\/jats:sub> before and after surgery. To study the pure fundus fluorescence decay in eyes with natural lenses, we advise to utilize fluorescence lifetime \u03c4<jats:sub>m,12<\/jats:sub> of a triple-exponential tailfit, as it corresponds well with the mean fluorescence lifetime \u03c4<jats:sub>m,all<\/jats:sub> of eyes with fluorescence-less artificial intraocular lenses.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1364\/boe.400059","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,8]],"date-time":"2020-08-08T15:30:14Z","timestamp":1596900614000},"page":"5586","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1364\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Comparison of algorithms to suppress artifacts from the natural lens in fluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy (FLIO)"],"prefix":"10.1364","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"D.","family":"Schweitzer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Haueisen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.
