Automated Diabetic Retinopathy Grading using Deep Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]
Diabetic Retinopathy is a global health problem, influences 100 million individuals worldwide, and in the next few decades, these incidences are expected to reach epidemic proportions. Diabetic Retinopathy is a subtle eye disease that can cause sudden, irreversible vision loss. The early-stage Diabetic Retinopathy diagnosis can be challenging for human

The Fovea in Retinopathy of Prematurity
Because preterm birth and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) are associated with poor visual acuity (VA) and altered foveal development, we evaluated relationships among the central retinal photoreceptors, postreceptor retinal neurons, overlying fovea, and VA in ROP.We obtained optical coherence tomograms (OCTs) in preterm born subjects with no history ...

Detection of Diabetic Anomalies in Retinal Images using Morphological Cascading Decision Tree [PDF]
This research aims to develop an efficient system for screening of diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic retinopathy is the major cause of blindness. Severity of diabetic retinopathy is recognized by some features, such as blood vessel area, exudates, haemorrhages and microaneurysms.

Altered retinal vasculature in childhood cancer survivors: Data from the German CVSS‐study
Abstract Aims Childhood cancer is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases in later life. Retinal examination allows to non‐invasively observe the vasculature of an end‐organ. We observe alterations in long‐term childhood cancer survivors (CCS). Methods In the Cardiac and Vascular Late Sequelae in Long‐Term Survivors of Childhood Cancer‐Study, 1002 ...

Advances in Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Diabetic Retinopathy [PDF]
Diabetic Retinopathy is a critical health problem influences 100 million individuals worldwide, and these figures are expected to rise, particularly in Asia. Diabetic Retinopathy is a chronic eye disease which can lead to irreversible vision loss. Considering the visual complexity of retinal images, the early-stage diagnosis of Diabetic Retinopathy can

Looking into Concept Explanation Methods for Diabetic Retinopathy Classification [PDF]
Diabetic retinopathy is a common complication of diabetes, and monitoring the progression of retinal abnormalities using fundus imaging is crucial. Because the images must be interpreted by a medical expert, it is infeasible to screen all individuals with diabetes for diabetic retinopathy.

Tracking visual outcomes – Follow‐up on patients born preterm with childhood‐onset visual impairment
Abstract Purpose Preterm birth is associated with a risk of ocular complications. The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the main cause of visual impairment (VI) in a cohort of preterm born patients who had childhood‐onset VI. The association between health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) and age, cause—and severity of VI and impairment type was ...

CaRENets: Compact and Resource-Efficient CNN for Homomorphic Inference on Encrypted Medical Images [PDF]
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have enabled significant performance leaps in medical image classification tasks. However, translating neural network models for clinical applications remains challenging due to data privacy issues. Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) has the potential to address this challenge as it enables the use of CNNs on ...

Retinopathy of Prematurity: How to prevent retinopathy of prematurity in Indonesia? [PDF]
Summary Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a serious eye disease seen in preterm infants that can cause blindness. In this thesis, we tried to answer the following questions. 1. Is this disease seen more frequently in patients in Indonesia compared to High-Income Countries (HIC), and are clinical characteristics different? 2.
