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.
SIGNIFICANCE: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) poses a significant global threat to childhood vision, necessitating effective screening strategies. This study addresses the impact of color channels in fundus imaging on ROP diagnosis, emphasizing the ...
PURPOSE: To evaluate whether providing clinicians with an artificial intelligence (AI)-based vascular severity score (VSS) improves consistency in the diagnosis of plus disease in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
Image-based artificial intelligence (AI) systems stand as the major modality for evaluating ophthalmic conditions. However, most of the currently available AI systems are designed for experimental research using single-central datasets. Most of them ...
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a revolutionary technology that has the potential to develop into a widely implemented system that could reduce the dependence on qualified professionals/experts for screening the large at-risk population, especially i...
TOPIC: To evaluate the performance of machine learning (ML) in the diagnosis of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and to assess whether it can be an effective automated diagnostic tool for clinical applications.
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a potentially blinding disease in premature neonates that requires a skilled workforce for diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment. Artificial intelligence is a valuable tool that clinicians employ to reduce the scree...
