Clinical validation of a genetic model to estimate the risk of developing choroidal neovascular age-related macular degeneration

Clinical validation of a genetic model to estimate the risk of developing choroidal neovascular age-related macular degeneration

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Predictive tests for estimating the risk of developing late-stage neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are subject to unique challenges. AMD prevalence increases with age, clinical phenotypes are heterogeneous and control collections are prone to hi...
