In this manuscript, we present a robust method for glaucoma screening from fundus images using an ensemble of convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The pipeline comprises of first segmenting the optic disk and optic cup from the fundus…
With the advancement of powerful image processing and machine learning techniques, CAD has become ever more prevalent in all fields of medicine including ophthalmology. Since optic disc is the most important part of retinal fundus image for…
Pathologic myopia (PM) is a common blinding retinal degeneration suffered by highly myopic population. Early screening of this condition can reduce the damage caused by the associated fundus lesions and therefore prevent vision loss.…
Purpose To develop a computer based method for the automated assessment of image quality in the context of diabetic retinopathy (DR) to guide the photographer. Methods A deep learning framework was trained to grade the images automatically.…
Objective: Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. Glaucomatous progression can be easily monitored by analyzing the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Many researchers have screened glaucoma by measuring…
Glaucoma is the leading cause of preventable, irreversible blindness world-wide. The disease can remain asymptomatic until severe, and an estimated 50%-90% of people with glaucoma remain undiagnosed. Glaucoma screening is recommended for…
The use of fundus images for the early screening of eye diseases is of great clinical importance. Due to its powerful performance, deep learning is becoming more and more popular in related applications, such as lesion segmentation,…
Accurate diagnosis of glaucoma is challenging, as early-stage changes are subtle and often lack clear structural or appearance cues. Most existing approaches rely on a single modality, such as fundus or optical coherence tomography (OCT),…
Objective: To validate and compare the performance of eight available deep learning architectures in grading the severity of glaucoma based on color fundus images. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively collected a dataset of 5978 fundus…
Previous approaches using deep learning algorithms to classify glaucomatous damage on fundus photographs have been limited by the requirement for human labeling of a reference training set. We propose a new approach using spectral-domain…
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual impairment among elderly in the world. Early detection of AMD is of great importance, as the vision loss caused by this disease is irreversible and permanent. Color…
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) grading from fundus images has attracted increasing interest in both academic and industrial communities. Most convolutional neural network (CNN) based algorithms treat DR grading as a classification task via…
Automatic diabetic retinopathy (DR) grading based on fundus photography has been widely explored to benefit the routine screening and early treatment. Existing researches generally focus on single-field fundus images, which have limited…
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide and poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its reliance on subjective evaluation. However, recent advances in computer vision and deep learning have demonstrated the…
Glaucoma is one of the ophthalmic diseases that may cause blindness, for which early detection and treatment are very important. Fundus images and optical coherence tomography (OCT) images are both widely-used modalities in diagnosing…
Large-scale public datasets with high-quality annotations are rarely available for intelligent medical imaging research, due to data privacy concerns and the cost of annotations. In this paper, we release SynFundus-1M, a high-quality…
This paper introduces an innovative software system for fundus image analysis that deliberately diverges from the conventional screening approach, opting not to predict specific diagnoses. Instead, our methodology mimics the diagnostic…
Artificial intelligence (AI) shows remarkable potential in medical imaging diagnostics, yet most current models require retraining when applied across different clinical settings, limiting their scalability. We introduce GlobeReady, a…
This paper addresses the emerging task of recognizing multiple retinal diseases from wide-field (WF) and ultra-wide-field (UWF) fundus images. For an effective use of existing large amount of labeled color fundus photo (CFP) data and the…
