Book Efficient Computer Aided Techniques to Detect Glaucoma

Download or read book Efficient Computer Aided Techniques to Detect Glaucoma written by Nataraj Vijapur and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A survey of the World Health Organization has revealed that retinal eye disease Glaucoma is the second leading cause for blindness worldwide. It is a disease which will steals the vision of the patient without any warning or symptoms. About half of the World Glaucoma Patients are estimated to be in Asia. Hence, for social and economic reasons, Glaucoma detection is necessary in preventing blindness and reducing the cost of surgical treatment of the disease. The objective of the chapter is to predict and detect Glaucoma efficiently using image processing techniques. We have developed an efficient computer-aided Glaucoma detection system to classify a fundus image as either normal or glaucomatous image based on the structural features of the fundus image such as cup-to-disc ratio (CDR), rim-to-disc ratio (RDR), superior and inferior neuroretinal rim thicknesses, vessel structure-based features, and distribution of texture features in the fundus images. An automated clinical support system is developed to assist the ophthalmologists to identify the persons who are at risk in the early stages of the disease, monitor the progression of the disease, and minimize the examination time.

Book Automated Diagnosis of Glaucoma Using Ai Techniques

Download or read book Automated Diagnosis of Glaucoma Using Ai Techniques written by Ahmed Salah Ghorab and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glaucoma is a major cause of blindness globally. It damages the optic nerve cells that transmit visual information to the brain. Intra-Ocular Pressure (IOP) is the most significant danger reason to develop glaucoma. Even though a number of variables, including various optic disc parameters, have been used to discover early glaucoma damage, there is a real need for computer-aided detection (CAD) methods that can identify early glaucomatous development so that treatment to avoid further progression can be started especially in mass screenings, because ophthalmologists have limited time to assess mass number of fundus images.This thesis focused on the description of a system based on image processing and classification techniques for the estimation of quantitative parameters to classify fundus images into two classes: glaucoma patients and normal patients.

Book Computational Analysis of the Human Eye with Applications

Download or read book Computational Analysis of the Human Eye with Applications written by Sumeet Dua and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in semi-automated high-throughput image data collection routines, coupled with a decline in storage costs and an increase in high-performance computing solutions have led to an exponential surge in data collected by biomedical scientists and medical practitioners. Interpreting this raw data is a challenging task, and nowhere is this more evident than in the field of opthalmology. The sheer speed at which data on cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and other eye disorders are collected, makes it impossible for the human observer to directly monitor subtle, yet critical details. This book is a novel and well-timed endeavor to present, in an amalgamated format, computational image modeling methods as applied to various extrinsic scientific problems in ophthalmology. It is self-contained and presents a highly comprehensive array of image modeling algorithms and methodologies relevant to ophthalmologic problems. The book is the first of its kind, bringing eye imaging and multi-dimensional hyperspectral imaging and data fusion of the human eye, into focus. The editors are at the top of their fields and bring a strong multidisciplinary synergy to this visionary volume. Their "inverted-pyramid" approach in presenting the content, and focus on core applications, will appeal to students and practitioners in the field.
