JRS provided cell biology expertise concerning the reflectors and absorbers in the macula.
For uniformity of processing, all images were resized with bicubic interpolation so that the distance from the center of the macula to the temporal disc edge was 490 pixels.
Lastly, despite the use of a wide range of general image analysis tools, their methods, as those in the other references, take no account of the intrinsic background variability, and accordingly can produce errors in a systematic and predictable fashion: inadequate segmentation centrally and over inclusive segmentation in the peripheral macula, as their own illustrations demonstrate.
We therefore constructed appropriate annular zones in the macula for percentage (multiplicative) increases in brightness to be empirically determined using published data on the spatial distribution of macular pigment [ 29 30 ] . These observers found that the macular pigment density (hence optical density) is greatest centrally, drops to half-maximum within a diameter of 500 to 600 μm, reaches a quarter-maximum at a diameter of about 1000 μm, and thence tapers slowly to a low constant level within a 2000 μm diameter region.
The regions studied were the central 1000-micron diameter circular subfield and the 3000-micron outer diameter annular subfield (with 1000-micron inner diameter) centered on the fovea (the 1500 micron diameter anatomical center of the macula).
