The Artifact Removal procedure for multifocal electroretinograms (mERG) significantly altered test responses and increased noise, questioning its reliability for clinical use.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Multifocal electroretinograms (mERG) are crucial for assessing retinal function.
  • Artifacts can distort mERG signals, necessitating effective removal techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and accuracy of the Artifact Removal procedure in Veris Science software for mERG analysis.

Main Methods:

  • mERGs were recorded from three normal subjects using the Veris III system.
  • The Artifact Removal procedure was applied to first-order and second-order kernel response components.
  • Stimuli involved densely arranged hexagonal element arrays.

Main Results:

  • The Artifact Removal procedure altered the shape of test responses and neighboring traces.

  • Irregular changes and increased noise were observed in second-order kernel responses after procedure application.
  • Repeated application led to significant changes in response waveforms.

    • Conclusions:

    • The Artifact Removal procedure demonstrated a notable impact on mERG waveforms and signal integrity.
    • Caution is advised regarding its clinical application without rigorous validation.
    • Further testing is recommended to ensure the procedure's reliability and safety.
