To examine the agreement of a novel computer program measuring retinal vessel tortuosity with subjective assessment in school-aged children.Cross-sectional study 387 vessels (193 arterioles, 194 veins) from 28 eyes 14 children (aged 10 years). Retinal digital images were analyzed using Computer Assisted Image Analysis Retina (CAIAR) program, including measures tortuosity. Vessels graded (from 0 = none; to 5 tortuous) independently by two observers. Interobserver was assessed kappa...

Abstract Medical artificial intelligence (AI) offers great potential for recognizing signs of health conditions in retinal images and expediting the diagnosis eye diseases systemic disorders 1 . However, development AI models requires substantial annotation are usually task-specific with limited generalizability to different clinical applications 2 Here, we present RETFound, a foundation model that learns generalizable representations from unlabelled provides basis label-efficient adaptation...

Cadaveric studies have shown disease-related neurodegeneration and other morphological abnormalities in the retina of individuals with Parkinson disease (PD); however, it remains unclear whether this can be reliably detected vivo imaging. We investigated inner retinal anatomy, measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT), prevalent PD subsequently assessed association these markers development a prospective research cohort.

Purpose: To determine whether posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is influenced by intraocular lens (IOL) material. Setting: A British teaching hospital eye department. Methods: Ninety eyes were prospectively randomized to receive a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), silicone, or AcrySof® IOL. All lenses had 6,0 mm optics and PMMA haptics. standardized surgical protocol was performed single surgeon using an extracapsular technique with capsulorhexis. Patients having complications excluded,...

Exudates are the primary sign of Diabetic Retinopathy. Early detection can potentially reduce risk blindness. An automatic method to detect exudates from low-contrast digital images retinopathy patients with non-dilated pupils using a Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering is proposed. Contrast enhancement preprocessing applied before four features, namely intensity, standard deviation on hue and number edge pixels, extracted supply as input parameters coarse segmentation FCM method. The first...
