BACKGROUND: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the leading preventable cause of childhood blindness. A timely intravitreal injection of antivascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) is required to prevent retinal detachment with consequent visi...
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the effectiveness of machine learning (ML) models in predicting the occurrence of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and treatment need.
IMPORTANCE: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the leading cause of preventable childhood blindness worldwide. If detected and treated early, ROP-associated blindness is preventable; however, identifying patients who might respond to treatment requi...
PURPOSE: To assess the rate of retinal vascularization derived from ultra-widefield (UWF) imaging-based retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening as predictor of type 1 ROP and characterize the effect of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti...

PURPOSE: To assess the appropriateness and readability of responses provided by four large language models (LLMs) (ChatGPT-4, Claude 3, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot) to parents' queries pertaining to retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
BACKGROUND: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), is a preventable leading cause of blindness in infants and is a condition in which the immature retina experiences abnormal blood vessel growth. The development of ROP is multifactorial; nevertheless, the...

The detection of optic disc and macula is an essential step for ROP (Retinopathy of prematurity) zone segmentation and disease diagnosis. This paper aims to enhance deep learning-based object detection with domain-specific morphological rules. Based ...
INTRODUCTION: Early prediction and timely treatment are essential for minimizing the risk of visual loss or blindness of retinopathy of prematurity, emphasizing the importance of ROP screening in clinical routine.
PURPOSE: To provide automatic detection of Type 1 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), Type 2 ROP, and A-ROP by deep learning-based analysis of fundus images obtained by clinical examination using convolutional neural networks.
