Glaucoma leads to permanent vision disability by damaging the optical nerve that transmits visual images to the brain. The fact that glaucoma does not show any symptoms as it progresses and cannot be stopped at the later stages, makes it…

Retinal imaging is fast, non-invasive, and widely available, offering quantifiable structural and vascular signals for ophthalmic and systemic health assessment. This accessibility creates an opportunity to study how quantitative retinal…

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have demonstrated remarkable performance when the training and testing data are from the same distribution. However, such trained CNN models often largely degrade on testing data which is unseen and…

The rapid increment of morbidity of brain stroke in the last few years have been a driving force towards fast and accurate segmentation of stroke lesions from brain MRI images. With the recent development of deep-learning, computer-aided…

The segmentation of retinal vessels is of significance for doctors to diagnose the fundus diseases. However, existing methods have various problems in the segmentation of the retinal vessels, such as insufficient segmentation of retinal…

Diseases are currently managed by grading systems, where patients are stratified by grading systems into stages that indicate patient risk and guide clinical management. However, these broad categories typically lack prognostic value, and…

Ophthalmic diseases pose a significant global health burden. However, traditional diagnostic methods and existing monocular image-based deep learning approaches often overlook the pathological correlations between the two eyes. In practical…

We present our novel deep multi-task learning method for medical image segmentation. Existing multi-task methods demand ground truth annotations for both the primary and auxiliary tasks. Contrary to it, we propose to generate the…
