BACKGROUND: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness in adults worldwide. Artificial intelligence (AI) with autonomous deep learning algorithms has been increasingly used in retinal image analysis, particularly for the screening of r...
Fetoscopic Laser Coagulation (FLC) for Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome is a challenging intervention due to the working conditions: low quality images acquired from a 3 mm fetoscope inside a turbid liquid environment, local view of the placental su...
INTRODUCTION: The study hypothesizes that neural networks can be an effective tool for predicting treatment outcomes in patients with diabetic neovascular glaucoma (NVG), considering not only baseline intraocular pressure (IOP) values but also inflam...

PURPOSE: Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a placental defect occurring in monochorionic twin pregnancies. It is associated with high risks of fetal loss and perinatal death. Fetoscopic elective laser ablation (ELA) of placental anastomoses...
AIMS: To construct a program to predict the visual acuity (VA), best corrected VA (BCVA) and spherical equivalent (SE) of patients with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) from 3 to 12 years old after intravitreal injection (IVI) of anti-vascular endoth...
