Recent endeavors have led to the exploration of Machine Learning (ML) to enhance the detection and accurate diagnosis of heart pathologies. This is due to the growing need to improve efficiency in diagnostics and hasten the process of delivering treatment. Several institutions have actively assessed the possibility of creating algorithms for advancing our understanding of atrial fibrillation (AF), a common form of sustained arrhythmia.

Background: Diabetic retinopathy is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus and is one of the leading causes of vision impairment globally, which is also relevant for the Russian Federation.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of a convolutional neural network trained for the detection of diabetic retinopathy and estimation of its severity in fundus images of the Russian population.

Methods: In this cross-sectional multicenter study, the training data set was obtained from an open source and relabeled by a group of independent retina specialists; the sample size was 60,000 eyes.
