Title
Automatic macular edema identification and characterization using OCT images.
Abstract
•The automatic identification of Macular Edemas (ME) helps significantly in the evaluation of the disease severity.•A complete methodology is proposed to characterize the presence of MEs using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images.•The identified types are Serous Retinal Detachment (SRD), Diffuse Retinal Thickening (DRT) and Cystoid Macular Edema (CME).•The experimental results offer an accurate performance in the identification of all the types of ME.•The system represents an useful auxiliary tool, aiding in the complex work of identification of a relevant disease as is ME.
