Systematic Assessment of Clinical Methods to Diagnose and Monitor Diabetic Retinal Neuropathy
Purpose. Diabetic retinal neuropathy refers to retinal neural tissue damage occurring before the structural retinal changes of diabetic retinopathy and fulfils many of the criteria for causality for the subsequent vasculopathy. Developing reliable means of measuring neuronal damage in diabetes may be important in efforts to prevent retinopathy of a ...

Blind spot and visual field anisotropy detection with flicker pupil perimetry across brightness and task variations [PDF]
The pupil can be used as an objective measure for testing sensitivities across the visual field (pupil perimetry; PP). The recently developed gaze-contingent flicker PP (gcFPP) is a promising novel form of PP, with improved sensitivity due to ...

Classification of multiple diseases based on wavelet features
This study presents an efficient disease classification approach based on medical images. The approach is more efficient as it reduces the computational complexity. The implementation uses only two wavelet filters in selecting the texture features as compared with five filters used in the earlier research works. The computed average and energy features
