Fig. 1From: Area of the cone interdigitation zone in healthy Chinese adults and its correlation with macular volumeMeasurement of the IZ area and IZ length in 12 directions. The boundary of IZ was defined as the ends (*) of the continuous and smooth, highly reflective line between the ellipsoid zone and the retinal pigment epithelium-Bruch membrane (RPE-BM) compound. The length of the IZ was measured in each direction from the central fovea to the end of the IZ. IZ = interdigitation zone; INL = inferior nasal lower; INU = inferior nasal upper; ITL = inferior temporal lower, ITU: inferior temporal upper, I: inferior, N: nasal, S = superior; SNL: superior nasal lower; SNU = superior nasal upper; STL = superior temporal lower; STU: superior temporal upper; T = temporalBack to article page
