In their article, “Effect of MMP-9 gene knockout on retinal vascular form and function,” George et al study the effect of knocking out a matrix protein in a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa using the Phoenix MICRON® platform including OCT, and Ganzfeld ERG. The combination of the Phoenix MICRON® fundus images, OCT revealing the layers,

Retina as window to the brain: Stunning Phoenix MICRON® fluorescein angiography images of brain and retinal vasculature
Novel comparison of retina and brain vasculature leads to stunning Phoenix MICRON® images of fluorescent brain blood vessels The Phoenix MICRON® imaging platform produces stunning images of fluorescent retinal vasculature through fluorescein angiography but for the first time, researchers have also captured beautiful images of cortical brain vasculature. Hui et al, in their well-written and

Using the Phoenix MICRON® IV to examine a potential treatment for disrupted retinal vasculature
Many eye diseases, including age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, cancer growth, and uveitis, involve disrupted blood vessel growth and leakage. Curing the leakage and growth helps modulate and treat the underlying disease. The Phoenix MICRON® IV fundus camera allows for clear visualization of the rodent vasculature in bright field and with fluorescein angiography. Mirando
