Empowering Portable Age-Related Macular Degeneration Screening: Evaluation of a Deep Learning Algorithm for a Smartphone Fundus Camera.

Journal: BMJ open
PMID: 39237272

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Despite global research on early detection of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), not enough is being done for large-scale screening. Automated analysis of retinal images captured via smartphone presents a potential solution; however, to our knowledge, such an artificial intelligence (AI) system has not been evaluated. The study aimed to assess the performance of an AI algorithm in detecting referable AMD on images captured on a portable fundus camera.
