New method for studying immature retinal vessels in vivo.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The young kitten has proved to be a suitable experimental animal for studying in vivo effects of oxygen on immature retinal vessels. Visualization of these vessels by ophthalmoscopy, however, is unsatisfactory. A method is presented which affords good visualization of the retinal vessels by fluorescein angiography and which permits precise control of the intraocular pressure by use of an artificial anterior chamber.

Extracting Vessel Centerlines From Retinal Images Using Topographical Properties and Directional Filters
In this paper we consider the problem of blood vessel segmentation in retinal images. After enhancing the retinal image we use green channel of images for segmentation as it provides better discrimination between vessels and background. We consider the negative of retinal green channel image as a topographical surface and extract ridge points on this surface. The points with this property are l...
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...
متن کاملAutomatic 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...

In this paper, a new unsupervised algorithm for automatic retinal blood vessel extraction is presented. A pre-processing step is introduced to eliminating optic disk and back ground noise. Blood vessel highlighting is prepared by a new method inspired by simple cells in human visual system. An adaptive threshold is introduced as an activation function of simple cells. Post-processing step is us...
متن کاملPermeability of blood-ocular barriers of neonatal and adult cat to sodium fluorescein.
The permeability of the ocular blood vessels to sodium fluorescein (NaFl) was evaluated in neonatal and adult cats by fluorescence microscopy. The iris, ciliary body, and choroidal vessels were markedly permeable, whereas the mature and immature retinal vessels were impermeable. Since there is no apparent barrier to NaFl at the level of the iris vessels, the role of those vessels in aqueous for...
