Irretrievable loss of vision is the predominant result Glaucoma in retina. Recently, multiple approaches have paid attention to automatic detection glaucoma on fundus images. Due interlace blood vessels and herculean task involved detection, exactly affected site optic disc whether small or big size cup, deemed challenging. Spatially Based Ellipse Fitting Curve Model (SBEFCM) classification sug...

BACKGROUND Robust reconstructions of the three-dimensional network of blood vessels in developing embryos imaged by optical coherence tomography (OCT) are needed for quantifying the longitudinal development of vascular networks in live mammalian embryos, in support of developmental cardiovascular research. Past computational methods [such as speckle variance (SV)] have demonstrated the feasibil...

To evaluate the apoptosis involvement in the angiogenesis as a self-limiting process in patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) degenerated disc vessels, we assessed, by immunohistochemistry, the detection of TRAIL, its death receptor DR5 and caspase 3. TRAIL, its death receptor DR5 and caspase 3 expression were studied by immunohistochemistry in 15 TMJ discs displaced without reduction and...

Artery/Vein (A/V) of retinal vessel is helpful for the automating the detection of various diseases such as Diabetic Retinography, high blood pressure, pancreas, and other vascular conditions. An automated approach is presented in this paper for classification of blood vessels into Artery/Vein based on the features extracted from the centerline pixels. The proposed method consists of 4 importan...

Seed point is prerequired condition for tracking based method for extracting centerline or vascular structures from the angiogram. In this paper, a novel seed point detection method for coronary artery segmentation is proposed. Vessels on the image are first enhanced according to the distribution of Hessian eigenvalue in multiscale space; consequently, centerlines of tubular vessels are also en...

Exudates are one of the earliest and most prevalent symptoms of Diabetic Retinopathy(DR), which is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus and a major cause of blindness worldwide. Certain areas of the retina with such conditions are to be photocoagulated by laser to stop the disease progress and prevent blindness. Outlining these areas is dependent on outlining the exudates, the blood vess...

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a condition where the retina is damaged due to fluid leaking from the blood vessels into the retina. In extreme cases, the patient will become blind. Therefore, early detection of diabetic retinopathy is crucial to prevent blindness. In this paper, a system for automatic identification of normal and abnormal retinal images is proposed through automatic detecting of ...
