Background And Objective: Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) allows three-dimensional imaging of the optic disc. The objective of this study was to compare optic disc and cup margins between fundus photographs and SD-OCT.

Patients And Methods: Eighteen eyes with glaucoma were examined by a custom-built SD-OCT OCT fundus images were used to register fundus photographs and SD-OCT volume.

Results: Disc margins on fundus photographs corresponded to termination of the highly reflective straight line that represented the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) or the highly reflective curved line that connected to the RPE on the OCT B-scan images at 99.3% of the positions along the disc edges. Cup margins on fundus photographs corresponded at 73.6% of the positions to the interior border of the hyporeflective regions on the OCT fundus images.

Conclusions: Excellent to fair correspondence in the determination of disc and cup margins between fundus photographs and SD-OCT images was shown.

Where adopted, Autonomous artificial Intelligence (AI) for Diabetic Retinal Disease (DRD) resolves longstanding racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities, but AI adoption bias persists. This preregistered trial determined sensitivity and specificity of a previously FDA authorized AI, improved to compensate for lower contrast and smaller imaged area of a widely adopted, lower cost, handheld fundus camera (RetinaVue700, Baxter Healthcare, Deerfield, IL) to identify DRD in participants with diabetes without known DRD, in primary care. In 626 participants (1252 eyes) 50.

Evaluating glaucoma in myopic eyes: Challenges and opportunities.

The increasing global prevalence of myopia presents a significant public health concern, and growing evidence has demonstrated that myopia is a major risk factor for the development of open-angle glaucoma. Therefore, timely detection and management of glaucoma in myopic patients are crucial; however, identifying the structural alterations of glaucoma in the optic nerve head (ONH) and retinal tissues of myopic eyes using standard diagnostic tools such as fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography (OCTA) presents challenges. Additionally, myopia-related perimetric defects can be confounded with glaucoma-related defects.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is common in patients with obesity and diabetes and can lead to serious complications. This study aimed to evaluate fundus photographs using artificial intelligence to explore the relationships between diabetic retinopathy (DR), MASLD, and related factors. In this cross-sectional study, we included 1,736 patients with a history of diabetes treatment or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels of ≥6.

Axial elongation in nonpathologic high myopia: Ocular structural changes and glaucoma diagnostic challenges.

Asia Pac J Ophthalmol (Phila)

State Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Guangdong Provincial Clinical Research Center for Ocular Diseases, Guangzhou, China. Electronic address:

Axial elongation continues in highly myopic adult eyes, even in the absence of pathologic changes such as posterior staphyloma or chorioretinal atrophy. This ongoing axial elongation leads to structural changes in the macular and peripapillary regions, including chorioretinal thinning, reduced vascular perfusion and optic disc tilting and rotation, among others. These alterations can affect the acquisition and interpretation of optical coherence tomography, optical coherence tomography angiography and fundus photographs, potentially introducing artifacts and diminishing the accuracy of glaucoma diagnosis in highly myopic eyes.

Background: Ocular proton beam therapy (OPT) planning would benefit from an accurate incorporation of fundus photographs, as various intra-ocular structures, such as the fovea, are not visible on conventional modalities such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). However, the use of fundus photographs in OPT is limited, as the eye's optics induce a nonuniform patient-specific deformation to the images.

Purpose: To develop a method to accurately map fundus photographs to three-dimensional images.
