Automated quantification of meibomian gland dropout in infrared meibography using deep learning.

The ocular surface
PURPOSE: Develop a deep learning-based automated method to segment meibomian glands (MG) and eyelids, quantitatively analyze the MG area and MG ratio, estimate the meiboscore, and remove specular reflections from infrared images.

A deep learning model established for evaluating lid margin signs with colour anterior segment photography.

Eye (London, England)
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the feasibility of applying a deep learning model to identify lid margin signs from colour anterior segment photography.

[Infrared Imaging Meibomian Gland Segmentation System Based on Deep Learning].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
In order to better assist doctors in the diagnosis of dry eye and improve the ability of ophthalmologists to recognize the condition of meibomian gland, a meibomian gland image segmentation and enhancement method based on Mobile-U-Net network was pro...

Predicting demographics from meibography using deep learning.

Scientific reports
This study introduces a deep learning approach to predicting demographic features from meibography images. A total of 689 meibography images with corresponding subject demographic data were used to develop a deep learning model for predicting gland m...

Automatic identification of meibomian gland dysfunction with meibography images using deep learning.

International ophthalmology
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence is developing rapidly, bringing increasing numbers of intelligent products into daily life. However, it has little progress in dry eye, which is a common disease and associated with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD...

Unsupervised Learning Based on Meibography Enables Subtyping of Dry Eye Disease and Reveals Ocular Surface Features.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science
PURPOSE: This study aimed to establish an image-based classification that can reveal the clinical characteristics of patients with dry eye using unsupervised learning methods.

Enhancing Meibography Image Analysis Through Artificial Intelligence-Driven Quantification and Standardization for Dry Eye Research.

Translational vision science & technology
PURPOSE: This study enhances Meibomian gland (MG) infrared image analysis in dry eye (DE) research through artificial intelligence (AI). It is comprised of two main stages: automated eyelid detection and tarsal plate segmentation to standardize meibo...

Advances in artificial intelligence for meibomian gland evaluation: A comprehensive review.

Survey of ophthalmology
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is increasingly recognized as a critical contributor to evaporative dry eye, significantly impacting visual quality. With a global prevalence estimated at 35.8 %, it presents substantial challenges for clinicians. Co...

Strip and boundary detection multi-task learning network for segmentation of meibomian glands.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Automatic segmentation of meibomian glands in near-infrared meibography images is basis of morphological parameter analysis, which plays a crucial role in facilitating the diagnosis of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). The special strip ...

Internal validation of a convolutional neural network pipeline for assessing meibomian gland structure from meibography.

Optometry and vision science : official publication of the American Academy of Optometry
SIGNIFICANCE: Optimal meibography utilization and interpretation are hindered due to poor lid presentation, blurry images, or image artifacts and the challenges of applying clinical grading scales. These results, using the largest image dataset analy...
