In addition to the optical filters of the CX-1 , the RX software offers also the possibility of a RGB channel filter. The Red channel can be helpful for the visualization of pigmentary disturbances, choroidal ruptures, nevi and malignant melanomas can contribute to the early detection of retinal changes.

A diagnostic technique for documenting the deposition of lipofuscin in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). It is easy and non invasive and provides information that may otherwise not be clinically detectable.
It can be a valuable asset in diagnosing retinal disease.

Since the introduction of fluorescein angiography (FFA) in 1959, ophthalmologists observed that even without the use of fluorescein, parts of the fundus would show areas of faint fluorescence under certain conditions. This naturally occurring fluorescence is mainly caused by Lipofuscin. Lipofuscin is a fluorescent pigment that accumulates in the RPE as a metabolic byproduct of cell function.
Lipofuscin deposition normally increases with age, but may also occur from RPE cell dysfunction or an abnormal metabolic load on the RPE. FAF imaging can visualize the deposition of lipofuscin in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Areas of excess Lipofuscin accumulation will appear hyperfluorescent. But when RPE cells die or are absent, LF disappears, leading to hypofluorescence.

The CX-1 utilizes green light spectrum to stimulate the retina and captures the emission in the yellow-orange spectrum- utilizing carefully selected matching optical filters. Using the green spectrum may provide more detail in the fovea, as where blue light tends to be absorbed by the high concentration of macular pigments. Additional advantage of green light is that the longer wavelength tends to have less absorption by the crystalline lens of the eye, especially in patients with cataracts.
