Intra-retinal layer segmentation in optical coherence tomography images.
Retinal layer thickness, evaluated as a function of spatial position from optical coherence tomography (OCT) images is an important diagnostics marker for many retinal diseases. However, due to factors such as speckle noise, low image contrast, irregularly shaped morphological features such as retinal detachments, macular holes, and drusen, accurate segmentation of individual retinal layers is ...

متن کاملSpeckle Noise Reduction for the Enhancement of Retinal Layers in Optical Coherence Tomography Images
Introduction One of the most important pre-processing steps in optical coherence tomography (OCT) is reducing speckle noise, resulting from multiple scattering of tissues, which degrades the quality of OCT images. Materials and Methods The present study focused on speckle noise reduction and edge detection techniques. Statistical filters with different masks and noise variances were applied on ...
متن کاملOrder Preserving and Shape Prior Constrained Intra-retinal Layer Segmentation in Optical Coherence Tomography
We present a probabilistic approach to the segmentation of OCT scans of retinal tissue. By combining discrete exact inference and a global shape prior, accurate segmentations are computed that preserve the physiological order of intra-retinal layers. A major part of the computations can be performed in parallel. The evaluation reveals robustness against speckle noise, shadowing caused by blood ...
متن کاملIntra-retinal Layer Segmentation in Optical Coherence Tomography Using an Active Contour Approach
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive, depth resolved imaging modality that has become a prominent ophthalmic diagnostic technique. We present an automatic segmentation algorithm to detect intra-retinal layers in OCT images acquired from rodent models of retinal degeneration. We adapt Chan-Vese's energy-minimizing active contours without edges for OCT images, which suffer from lo...
