ABSTRACTIn this paper an algorithm to detect the optic disc (OD) automatically is described. The proposed method is based on the circular brightness of the OD and its correlation coefficient. At first the peak intensity points are taken, a mask is generated for the given image which gives the circular bright regions of the image. To locate the OD accurately, a pattern is generated which is similar to the OD. By correlating the retinal image with the pattern generated, the maximum correlation of the pattern with the OD is obtained. On locating the coordinates of maximum correlation, the exact location of the OD is detected. The proposed algorithm has been tested with DRIVE database images and an average OD detection accuracy of 95% was obtained for healthy and pathological retinas respectively.

This paper presents an algorithm for three-dimensional medical image segmentation based on the Contrast and Shape Constrained Local Binary Fitting improved model. Due to Local Binary Fitting model is sensitive to initialization and easy to fall into local extreme value, the new algorithm adds contrast constraint term to the Local Binary Fitting model, aiming at solving the common existed problem of inconsistent brightness and low contrast ratio. Adding shape constraint term can improve the original Local Binary Fitting model by constructing shape constraint energy field around the average shape by the level set method to deal with the leak of deformation curve. In order to promote the speed of model evolution, the kernel function is simplified. Two-dimensional Contrast and Shape Constrained Local Binary Fitting model is then extended to three-dimensional and a three-dimensional dental pulp image is segmented. Experimental results show that the segmentation accuracy, the connection degree and the efficiency of the new method are greatly improved compared to original LBF model.

A retinal image has blood vessels, optic disc, fovea, and so forth as the main components of an image. Segmentation of these components has been investigated extensively. Principal component analysis (PCA) is one of the techniques that have been applied to segment the optic disc, but only a limited work has been reported. To our knowledge, fovea segmentation problem has not been reported in the literature using PCA. In this paper, we are presenting the segmentation of optic disc and fovea using PCA. The PCA was trained on optic discs and foveae using ten retinal images and then applied on seventy retinal images with a success rate of 97% in case of optic discs and 94.3% in case of fovea. Conventional algorithms feed one patch at a time from a test retinal image, and the next patch separated by one pixel part is fed. This process is continued till the full image area is covered. This is time consuming. We are suggesting techniques to cut down the processing time with the help of binary vessel tree of a given test image. Results are presented to validate our idea.

Unique Method

Automated retinal image analysis has been emerging as an important diagnostic tool for early detection of eye-related diseases such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. In this paper, we have presented a robust methodology for optic disc detection and boundary segmentation, which can be seen as the preliminary step in the development of a computer-assisted diagnostic system for glaucoma in retinal images. The proposed method is based on morphological operations, the Circular Hough transform and the Grow Cut algorithm. The morphological operators are used to enhance the optic disc and remove the retinal vasculature and other pathologies. The optic disc center is approximated using the Circular Hough transform, and the Grow Cut algorithm is employed to precisely segment the optic disc boundary. The method is quantitatively evaluated on five publicly available retinal image databases DRIVE, DIARETDB1, CHASE_DB1, DRIONS-DB, Messidor and one local Shifa Hospital Database. The method achieves an optic disc detection success rate of 100% for these databases with the exception of 99.09% and 99.25% for the DRIONS-DB, Messidor, and ONHSD databases, respectively. The optic disc boundary detection achieved an average spatial overlap of 78.6%, 85.12%, 83.23%, 85.1%, 87.93%, 80.1%, and 86.1%, respectively, for these databases. This unique method has shown significant improvement over existing methods in terms of detection and boundary extraction of the optic disc.
