Retinal Layer Segmentation in OCT Images With Boundary Regression and Feature Polarization.

The geometry of retinal layers is an important imaging feature for the diagnosis of some ophthalmic diseases. In recent years, retinal layer segmentation methods for optical coherence tomography (OCT) images have emerged one after another, and huge progress has been achieved. However, challenges due to interference factors such as noise, blurring, fundus effusion, and tissue artifacts remain in existing methods, primarily manifesting as intra-layer false positives and inter-layer boundary deviation.
