Automated Identification of Diabetic Retinopathy Stages Using Digital Fundus Images

Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is caused by damage to the small blood vessels of the retina in the posterior part of the eye of the diabetic patient. The main stages of diabetic retinopathy are non-proliferate diabetes retinopathy (NPDR) and proliferate diabetes retinopathy (PDR). The retinal fundus photographs are widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of various eye diseases in clinics. It is also one of the main resources for mass screening of diabetic retinopathy. In this work, we have proposed a computer-b… Show more

“…The detection of glaucoma through Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Heidelberg Retinal Tomography (HRT) are very costly [1, 2] compared to digital fundus images. It is easy to extract the features of the fundus images such as optic disc and cup to suspect the glaucoma [3,4,5].Glaucoma detection is classified into two categories: Primary open angle glaucoma and another is secondary glaucoma. In very early stage if it is diagnosed as glaucoma, that stage is called as primary open angle glaucoma.…”
