Abstract
Methods concerning medical uses for fluorescent dyes, e.g., Indocyanine green (ICG), fluorescein, rose bengal, for diagnosis and treatment. Methods for enhancing the clarity of fluorescent dye angiograms using relatively high dye concentrations, methods for determining the direction of blood flow within a blood vessel using fluorescent dye angiograms, and methods of identifying blood vessels that feed a lesion, such as a CNV or tumor. Methods of reducing the flow of blood into lesions incorporating dye-enhanced photocoagulation are also provided.
