Individualized Glaucoma Change Detection Using Deep Learning Auto Encoder-Based Regions of Interest
Purpose : To compare change over time in eye-specific optical coherence tomography (OCT) retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL)-based region-of-interest (ROI) maps developed using unsupervised deep-learning auto-encoders (DL-AE) to circumpapillary RNFL (cpRNFL) thickness for the detection of glaucomatous progression. Methods : Forty-four progressing glaucoma eyes (by stereophotograph assessment), 189 nonprogressing glaucoma eyes (by stereophotograph assessment), and 109 healthy eyes were followed for ≥3 years with ≥4 visits using OCT. The San Diego Automated Layer Segmentation Algorithm was used to automatically segment the RNFL layer from raw three-dimensional OCT images. For each longitudinal series, DL-AEs were used to generate individualized eye-based ROI maps ...
