摘要
Electroretinography (ERG) provides crucial insights into retinal function and the integrity of the visual pathways. However, ERG assessments classically require a complicated technical background with costly equipment. In addition, the placement of corneal or conjunctival electrodes is not always tolerated by the patients, which restricts the measurement for pediatric evaluations. In this short review, we give an overview of the use of the RETeval portable ERG device (LKC Technologies, Inc., Gaithersburg, MD, USA), a modern portable ERG device that can facilitate screening for diseases involving the retina and the optic nerve. We also review its potential to provide ocular biomarkers in systemic pathologies, such as Alzheimers disease and central nervous system alterations, within the framework of oculomics. Zusammenfassung Die Elektroretinografie (ERG) liefert wichtige Erkenntnisse uber die Funktion der Netzhaut und die Integritat der Sehbahnen. Allerdings erfordern ERG-Untersuchungen i.d.R. einen komplizierten technischen Hintergrund und kostspielige Gerate. Daruber hinaus wird das Anbringen von Hornhaut- oder Bindehautelektroden von den Patienten nicht immer toleriert, was die Messungen bei padiatrischen Untersuchungen einschrankt. In dieser kurzen ubersicht geben wir einen uberblick uber die Verwendung des tragbaren ERG-Gerats RETeval (LKC Technologies, Inc., Gaithersburg, MD, USA), eines modernen tragbaren ERG-Gerats, das das Screening auf Erkrankungen der Netzhaut und des Sehnervs erleichtern kann. Wir prufen auch sein Potenzial, okulare Biomarker (Oculomics) fur systemische Pathologien wie die Alzheimer-Krankheit und Veranderungen des zentralen Nervensystems zu liefern.
