Optic Disc Tuber

چکیده
Both paclitaxel and docetaxel are mitotic inhibitors with similar mechanisms of action. In our patient, CME was thought to be secondary to paclitaxel use. Paclitaxel treatment was discontinued and capecitabine (Xeloda; Hoffman-LaRoche Inc, Nutley, NJ) was prescribed by the patient’s oncologist. Six weeks after cessation of paclitaxel treatment, the patient’s bestcorrected visual acuity improved to 20/40 OU. Fundus examination findings and optical coherence tomography scans (Figure) revealed resolution of CME.

Automatic Optic Disc Center and Boundary Detection in Color Fundus Images
Accurately detection of retinal landmarks, like optic disc, is an important step in the computer aided diagnosis frameworks. This paper presents an efficient method for automatic detection of the optic disc’s center and estimating its boundary. The center and initial diameter of optic disc are estimated by employing an ANN classifier. The ANN classifier employs visual features of vessels and th...

متن کاملEvaluation of Retinal Optic Disc Segmentation in Patients with Glaucoma and Comparison with Other Methods of Medical Image Processing
Introduction: Glaucoma is the most common cause of blindness in some countries. In the meantime, the field of retinal image processing has been proposed in order to provide automatic systems for disease diagnosis. Among the methods of medical image processing, image segmentation is a process of identification and change in the display of an image. The objective of this study was to use t...

متن کاملMorphological Exudate Detection in Retinal Images using PCA-based Optic Disc Removal
Diabetic retinopathy lesion detection such as exudate in fundus image of retina can lead to early diagnosis of the disease. Retinal image includes dark areas such as main blood vessels and retinal tissue and also bright areas such as optic disk, optical fibers and lesions e.g. exudate. In this paper, a multistage algorithm for the detection of exudate in foreground is proposed. The algorithm se...
