To demonstrate the capability of SD-OCT to measure macular retinal ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness and assess its reproducibility in glaucomatous eyes.Fifty-one eyes (26 mild, 11 moderate, 14 severe) 51 patients underwent scanning using Cirrus HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) macula 200×200 acquisition protocol. Five scans were obtained on 5 days within 2 months. The cell analysis (GCA) algorithm was used detect GCIPL overall average, minimum, superotemporal,...
Post-mortem ganglion cell dropout has been observed in multiple sclerosis; however, longitudinal vivo assessment of retinal neuronal layers following acute optic neuritis remains largely unexplored. Peripapillary nerve fibre layer thickness, measured by optical coherence tomography, proposed as an outcome measure studies neuroprotective agents sclerosis, yet potential swelling during the stages may confound baseline measurements. The objective this study was to ascertain whether patients...
Optical coherence tomography studies in multiple sclerosis have primarily focused on evaluation of the retinal nerve fibre layer. The aetiology changes is thought to be secondary optic demyelination. objective this study was use optical determine if a subset patients with exhibit primary neuronopathy, absence retrograde degeneration layer and ascertain such may any distinguishing clinical characteristics. We identified 50 predominantly macular thinning (normal fibre-layer thickness average...
Background: Post-mortem analyses of multiple sclerosis (MS) eyes demonstrate prominent retinal neuronal ganglion cell layer (GCL) loss, in addition to related axonal nerve fiber (RNFL) loss. Despite this, clinical correlations layers remain largely unexplored MS. Objectives: To determine if MS patients exhibit vivo GCL deeper and investigate between thicknesses, subtype validated measures. Methods: Cirrus HD-optical coherence tomography (OCT), utilizing automated intra-retinal segmentation,...
<h3>Background</h3> The detrimental impact of smoking on health has been widely documented since the 1960s. Numerous studies have also quantified economic cost that imposes society. However, these mostly in high income countries, with limited documentation from developing countries. aim this paper is to measure smoking-attributable diseases countries throughout world, including low- and middle-income settings. <h3>Methods</h3> Cost Illness approach used estimate attributable-diseases 2012....
<h3>Objective</h3>To determine the relationships between conventional and segmentation-derived optical coherence tomography (OCT) retinal layer thickness measures with intracranial volume (a surrogate of head size) brain substructure volumes in multiple sclerosis (MS).<h3>Design</h3>Cross-sectional study.<h3>Setting</h3>Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland.<h3>Participants</h3>A total 84 patients MS 24 healthy control subjects.<h3>Main Outcome Measures</h3>High-definition...
Purpose: To develop and assess a method for predicting the likelihood of converting from early/intermediate to advanced wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging methods deep learning. Methods: Seventy-one eyes 71 patients with confirmed AMD contralateral were imaged OCT three times over 2 years (baseline, year 1, 2). These divided into two groups: that had not converted (n = 40) at those 31). Two convolutional neural networks (CNN) evaluated...
Purpose To develop and validate a deep learning model for the segmentation of five retinal biomarkers associated with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Methods 300 optical coherence tomography volumes from subject eyes nAMD were collected. Images manually segmented presence crucial features: intraretinal fluid, subretinal hyperreflective material, drusen/drusenoid pigment epithelium detachment (PED) PED. A architecture based on U-Net was trained to perform automatic these...

Peripheral neuropathy is the most frequent neurological complication of HIV infection, affecting more than one-third infected patients, including patients treated with antiretroviral therapy. Although emerging noninvasive techniques for corneal nerve assessments are increasingly being used to diagnose and monitor peripheral neuropathies, alterations have not been characterized in HIV. Here, determine whether SIV infection leads fiber loss, we immunostained corneas marker βIII tubulin. We...
