OCTID: Optical Coherence Tomography Image Database [PDF]
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging modality which is widely used in clinical ophthalmology. OCT images are capable of visualizing deep retinal layers which is crucial for early diagnosis of retinal diseases. In this paper, we describe a comprehensive open-access database containing more than 500 highresolution images ...

Generative Adversarial Networks Synthesize Realistic OCT Images of the Retina [PDF]
We report, to our knowledge, the first end-to-end application of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) towards the synthesis of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images of the retina. Generative models have gained recent attention for the increasingly realistic images they can synthesize, given a sampling of a data type.

Are Macula or Optic Nerve Head Structures better at Diagnosing Glaucoma? An Answer using AI and Wide-Field Optical Coherence Tomography [PDF]
Purpose: (1) To develop a deep learning algorithm to automatically segment structures of the optic nerve head (ONH) and macula in 3D wide-field optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans; (2) To assess whether 3D macula or ONH structures (or the combination of both) provide the best diagnostic power for glaucoma.

An Internal Limiting Membrane Plug and Gas Endotamponade for Recurrent or Persistent Macular Hole
Introduction Recurrent or persistent macular holes (MHs) are rare today due to the tendency to carefully peel the internal limiting membrane. Conversely, their treatment is still a challenge for a vitreoretinal surgeon.

Cystoid macular edema segmentation of Optical Coherence Tomography images using fully convolutional neural networks and fully connected CRFs [PDF]
In this paper we present a new method for cystoid macular edema (CME) segmentation in retinal Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images, using a fully convolutional neural network (FCN) and a fully connected conditional random fields (dense CRFs). As a first step, the framework trains the FCN model to extract features from retinal layers in OCT images,

The Role of Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane Flap in Macular Hole Closure.
Purpose To investigate the mechanism of macular hole (MH) closure following the inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) technique. Methods We performed the inverted ILM flap surgical technique as an experimental MH model in monkeys, and investigated ...

Macular Hole Surgery in a Patient Who Cannot Maintain Facedown Positioning
Aim: To present macular hole surgery in a patient who had previously undergone thyroid removal surgery. Material and Methods: During thyroid gland removal surgery, the recurrent laryngeal nerves were cut by the surgeon. Therefore, the patient had to have

Deep Learning Fundus Image Analysis for Diabetic Retinopathy and Macular Edema Grading [PDF]
Diabetes is a globally prevalent disease that can cause visible microvascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy and macular edema in the human eye retina, the images of which are today used for manual disease screening. This labor-intensive task could greatly benefit from automatic detection using deep learning technique.
