Abstract:
In this work Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) retinal images are automatically processed to detect the presence of cysts. The methodology is composed by three phases: region of interest where cysts will be searched is delimited; a watershed algorithm is applied to find all the possible regions in the image which might conform cystic structures; finally, texture analysis is performed in each region from previous phase to final classification. Results show that accuracy achieved with this method is over 80%.
