Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and age related macular degeneration (ARMD) are among the major causes of visual impairment worldwide. DR is mainly characterized by red spots, namely microaneurysms and bright lesions, specifically exudates…
Purpose: To demonstrate that retinal microvasculature per se is a reliable biomarker for Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) and, by extension, cardiovascular diseases. Methods: Deep Learning Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) applied to color…
Diabetic eye disease is one of the fastest growing causes of preventable blindness. With the advent of anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) therapies, it has become increasingly important to detect center-involved diabetic macular…
Blindness in diabetic patients caused by retinopathy (characterized by an increase in the diameter and new branches of the blood vessels inside the retina) is a grave concern. Many efforts have been made for the early detection of the…
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is an ocular condition caused by a sustained high level of sugar in the blood, which causes the retinal capillaries to block and bleed, causing retinal tissue damage. It usually results in blindness. Early…
People with diabetes are at risk of developing an eye disease called diabetic retinopathy (DR). This disease occurs when high blood glucose levels cause damage to blood vessels in the retina. Computer-aided DR diagnosis is a promising tool…
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a serious microvascular complication of diabetes, and one of the leading causes of vision loss worldwide. Although automated detection and grading, with Deep Learning (DL), can reduce the burden on…
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common retinal disease that leads to blindness. For diagnosis purposes, DR image grading aims to provide automatic DR grade classification, which is not addressed in conventional research methods of binary DR…
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) show impressive performance for image classification and detection, extending heavily to the medical image domain. Nevertheless, medical experts are sceptical in these predictions as the nonlinear…
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of preventable blindness, and automated fundus image grading can play an important role in large-scale screening. In this work, we investigate three CLIP-based approaches for five-class DR…
Teleophthalmology holds a great potential to improve the quality, access, and affordability in health care. For patients, it can reduce the need for travel and provide the access to a superspecialist. Ophthalmology lends itself easily to…
DRDr II is a hybrid of machine learning and deep learning worlds. It builds on the successes of its antecedent, namely, DRDr, that was trained to detect, locate, and create segmentation masks for two types of lesions (exudates and…
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision loss in working-age adults. While screening reduces the risk of blindness, traditional imaging is often costly and inaccessible. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms present a…
Longitudinal imaging is able to capture both static anatomical structures and dynamic changes in disease progression towards earlier and better patient-specific pathology management. However, conventional approaches for detecting diabetic…
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) results in vision loss if not treated early. A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system based on retinal fundus images is an efficient and effective method for early DR diagnosis and assisting experts. A…
Early detection and diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy is one of the current research focuses in ophthalmology. However, due to the subtle features of micro-lesions and their susceptibility to background interference, ex-isting detection…
Retinal imaging provides a non-invasive window into systemic microvascular health and has emerged as a potential biomarker for systemic diseases. However, whether retinal features encode biologically meaningful systemic signals that can be…
To improve the segmentation of diabetic retinopathy lesions (microaneurysms, hemorrhages, exudates, and soft exudates), we implemented a binary segmentation method specific to each type of lesion. As post-segmentation, we combined the…
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a severe condition affecting premature infants, leading to abnormal retinal blood vessel growth, retinal detachment, and potential blindness. While semi-automated systems have been used in the past to…
Retinal lesions play a vital role in the accurate classification of retinal abnormalities. Many researchers have proposed deep lesion-aware screening systems that analyze and grade the progression of retinopathy. However, to the best of our…
