Automated assessment of diabetic retinal image quality based on clarity and field definitionAlan D Fleming
Bio Medical Physics and Bio Engineering, Aberdeen University and Grampian University Hospitals, Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 47:1120-5. 2006..To evaluate the performance of an automated retinal image quality assessment system for use in automated diabetic retinopathy grading...
Automated microaneurysm detection using local contrast normalization and local vessel detectionAlan D Fleming
Biomedical Physics, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, AB25 2ZD, UK
IEEE Trans Med Imaging 25:1223-32. 2006..Results are presented for detection of individual MAs and for detection of images containing MAs. Images containing MAs are detected with sensitivity 85.4% and specificity 83.1%...
Automatic detection of retinal anatomy to assist diabetic retinopathy screeningAlan D Fleming
Biomedical Physics, University of Aberdeen, and Grampian Diabetes Retinal Screening Programme, Woolmanhill Hospital, Aberdeen, AB25 2ZD, UK
Phys Med Biol 52:331-45. 2007..4% of cases for optic disc location, and in 96.5% of cases for fovea location. The methods are sufficiently accurate to form an important and effective component of an automated image grading system for diabetic retinopathy screening...
The role of haemorrhage and exudate detection in automated grading of diabetic retinopathyAlan D Fleming
Department of Bio Medical Physics and Bio Engineering, Aberdeen University and Grampian University Hospitals, Aberdeen, UK
Br J Ophthalmol 94:706-11. 2010..This study investigated whether inclusion of automated recognition of exudates and haemorrhages improves the detection of observable/referable diabetic retinopathy...
Automated grading for diabetic retinopathy: a large-scale audit using arbitration by clinical expertsAlan D Fleming
Biomedical Physics, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill, UK
Br J Ophthalmol 94:1606-10. 2010....
Automated detection of exudates for diabetic retinopathy screeningAlan D Fleming
Biomedical Physics, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, AB25 2ZD, UK
Phys Med Biol 52:7385-96. 2007..6% in a test set of 13,219 images of which 300 contained exudates. Depending on requirements, this method could form part of an automated system to detect images showing either any diabetic retinopathy or referable diabetic retinopathy...
Automated clarity assessment of retinal images using regionally based structural and statistical measuresAlan D Fleming
University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen University and Grampian University Hospitals, Foresterhill, Aberdeen AB25 2ZD, United Kingdom
Med Eng Phys 34:849-59. 2012..7% sensitivity at 90% specificity. This study has shown that structural and statistical measures are equally useful for retinal image clarity assessment...
The evidence for automated grading in diabetic retinopathy screeningAlan D Fleming
College of Life Science and Medicine, University of Aberdeen, Foresterhill, AB25 2ZD, Scotland
Curr Diabetes Rev 7:246-52. 2011..In conclusion, the review shows that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that automated grading, operating as a disease / no disease grader, is safe and could reduce the workload of manual grading in diabetic retinopathy screening...
