Transformer enhanced autoencoder rendering cleaning of noisy optical coherence tomography images.

Purpose: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an emerging imaging tool in healthcare with common applications in ophthalmology for detection of retinal diseases, as well as other medical domains. The noise in OCT images presents a great challenge as it hinders the clinician's ability to diagnosis in extensive detail.

Approach: In this work, a region-based, deep-learning, denoising framework is proposed for adaptive cleaning of noisy OCT-acquired images.

Denoising of Optical Coherence Tomography Images in Ophthalmology Using Deep Learning: A Systematic Review.

Imaging from optical coherence tomography (OCT) is widely used for detecting retinal diseases, localization of intra-retinal boundaries, etc. It is, however, degraded by speckle noise. Deep learning models can aid with denoising, allowing clinicians to clearly diagnose retinal diseases.

Lesion Detection in Optical Coherence Tomography with Transformer-Enhanced Detector.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an emerging imaging tool in healthcare with common applications in ophthalmology for the detection of retinal diseases and in dentistry for the early detection of tooth decay. Speckle noise is ubiquitous in OCT images, which can hinder diagnosis by clinicians. In this paper, a region-based, deep learning framework for the detection of anomalies is proposed for OCT-acquired images.
