Area of Science:

Ophthalmology
Neuroscience
Electrophysiology

Background:

The multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) assesses local retinal function.
Standardized protocols are crucial for reliable electrophysiological testing.

Purpose of the Study:

To establish updated guidelines for the performance and reporting of the clinical multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG).
To ensure consistent quality of mfERG testing and reporting across different centers.

Main Methods:

The guidelines detail the performance of the mfERG test, recording local ERG responses from the cone-driven retina under light-adapted conditions.
Guidance covers technical and practical aspects of the mfERG procedure.
Specific recommendations for reporting mfERG test results are provided.

Main Results:

These 2007 guidelines replace the previous ISCEV mfERG guidelines from 2003.
The document aims to promote uniformity in mfERG testing and interpretation.

Conclusions:

Adherence to these guidelines will enhance the quality and comparability of clinical mfERG data.
Standardized mfERG testing supports accurate diagnosis and monitoring of retinal conditions.
