Localizing Anatomical Landmarks in Ocular Images using Zoom-In Attentive Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Localizing anatomical landmarks are important tasks in medical image analysis. However, the landmarks to be localized often lack prominent visual features. Their locations are elusive and easily confused with the background, and thus precise localization highly depends on the context formed by their surrounding areas.

AGE Challenge: Angle Closure Glaucoma Evaluation in Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Angle closure glaucoma (ACG) is a more aggressive disease than open-angle glaucoma, where the abnormal anatomical structures of the anterior chamber angle (ACA) may cause an elevated intraocular pressure and gradually lead to glaucomatous optic neuropathy and eventually to visual impairment and blindness.

Content-Preserving Diffusion Model for Unsupervised AS-OCT image Despeckling [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that is highly valuable for ophthalmic diagnosis. However, speckles in AS-OCT images can often degrade the image quality and affect clinical analysis. As a result, removing speckles in AS-OCT images can greatly benefit automatic ophthalmology analysis ...
