OBJECTIVES: To develop and validate an end-to-end region-based deep convolutional neural network (R-DCNN) to jointly segment the optic disc (OD) and optic cup (OC) in retinal fundus images for precise cup-to-disc ratio (CDR) measurement and glaucoma ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Patients with angle-closure glaucoma (ACG) are asymptomatic until they experience a painful attack. Shallow anterior chamber depth (ACD) is considered a significant risk factor for ACG. We propose a deep learning approach t...
Segmentation is a fundamental task in biomedical image analysis. Unlike the existing region-based dense pixel classification methods or boundary-based polygon regression methods, we build a novel graph neural network (GNN) based deep learning framewo...
PURPOSE: To develop and validate a deep learning (DL) system for predicting each point on visual fields (VFs) from disc and OCT imaging and derive a structure-function mapping.
Glaucoma is the second most common cause for blindness around the world and the third most common in Europe and the USA. Around 78 million people are presently living with glaucoma (2020). It is expected that 111.8 million people will have glaucoma b...
Glaucoma is a silent disease that leads to vision loss or irreversible blindness. Current deep learning methods can help glaucoma screening by extending it to larger populations using retinal images. Low-cost lenses attached to mobile devices can inc...
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerosis and is a common disease of the elderly leading to excess morbidity and mortality. Early PAD diagnosis is important, as the only available causal therapy is addressing risk factors like sm...
Glaucoma is an eye disease initiated due to excessive intraocular pressure inside it and caused complete sightlessness at its progressed stage. Whereas timely glaucoma screening-based treatment can save the patient from complete vision loss. Accurate...
Vision loss happens due to diabetic retinopathy (DR) in severe stages. Thus, an automatic detection method applied to diagnose DR in an earlier phase may help medical doctors to make better decisions. DR is considered one of the main risks, leading t...

Glaucoma is a chronic ocular disease characterized by damage to the optic nerve resulting in progressive and irreversible visual loss. Early detection and timely clinical interventions are critical in improving glaucoma-related outcomes. As a typical...
