Nowadays, number of retinal disorders are affecting to all age groups. Various research activities are being carried out to diagnosis the disorders. Damage to retina leads to loss of vision. An efficient detection of optic disc(OD) is an important task in an automated retinal image examination system. Most of the OD detection algorithms are developed for normal retinal images. So, to detect OD from normal, healthy and abnormal retinal images are challenging tasks. In this work, the various methods used to locate OD and blood vessel segmentation from retinal images are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
