Exploring the effect of hypertension on retinal microvasculature using deep learning on East Asian population.

PloS one
Hypertension is the leading risk factor of cardiovascular disease and has profound effects on both the structure and function of the microvasculature. Abnormalities of the retinal vasculature may reflect the degree of microvascular damage due to hype...

NFN+: A novel network followed network for retinal vessel segmentation.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
In the early diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy, the morphological attributes of blood vessels play an essential role to construct a retinal computer-aided diagnosis system. However, due to the challenges including limited densely annotated data, inte...

Plus Disease in Retinopathy of Prematurity: Convolutional Neural Network Performance Using a Combined Neural Network and Feature Extraction Approach.

Translational vision science & technology
PURPOSE: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a leading cause of childhood blindness, is diagnosed by clinical ophthalmoscopic examinations or reading retinal images. Plus disease, defined as abnormal tortuosity and dilation of the posterior retinal blo...

Deep learning algorithms for detection of diabetic retinopathy in retinal fundus photographs: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the leading causes of blindness globally. Earlier detection and timely treatment of DR are desirable to reduce the incidence and progression of vision loss. Currently, deep learning (DL) approaches have...

New grading criterion for retinal haemorrhages in term newborns based on deep convolutional neural networks.

Clinical & experimental ophthalmology
BACKGROUND: To define a new quantitative grading criterion for retinal haemorrhages in term newborns based on the segmentation results of a deep convolutional neural network.

Tracing in 2D to reduce the annotation effort for 3D deep delineation of linear structures.

Medical image analysis
The difficulty of obtaining annotations to build training databases still slows down the adoption of recent deep learning approaches for biomedical image analysis. In this paper, we show that we can train a Deep Net to perform 3D volumetric delineati...

DCCMED-Net: Densely connected and concatenated multi Encoder-Decoder CNNs for retinal vessel extraction from fundus images.

Medical hypotheses
Recent studies have shown that convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can be more accurate, efficient and even deeper on their training if they include direct connections from the layers close to the input to those close to the output in order to trans...

DeepBranch: Deep Neural Networks for Branch Point Detection in Biomedical Images.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Morphology reconstruction of tree-like structures in volumetric images, such as neurons, retinal blood vessels, and bronchi, is of fundamental interest for biomedical research. 3D branch points play an important role in many reconstruction applicatio...

Automated diagnosis and quantitative analysis of plus disease in retinopathy of prematurity based on deep convolutional neural networks.

Acta ophthalmologica
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to develop an automated diagnosis and quantitative analysis system for plus disease. The system provides a diagnostic decision but also performs quantitative analysis of the typical pathological features of t...
