Semi-automated analysis of geographic atrophy with RF and ARPET is equally reliable and reproducible in clinical settings, despite both algorithms require frequent adjustment by users. The ARPET restricts size measurements to the central 5 mm, which limits its ability to fully track GA progression. Results of both tools are not interchangeable as measurements with ARPET result in larger lesion sizes.
