• Abstract summary: A total of 15744 B-scans from 269 intermediate AMD patients and 115 normal subjects were used in this study. For each subset, a convolutional neural network (based on VGG16 architecture and pre-trained on ImageNet) was trained and tested. The performance of the models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

• Abstract: To study whether it is possible to differentiate intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD) from healthy controls using partial optical coherence tomography (OCT) data, that is, restricting the input B-scans to certain pre-defined regions of interest (ROIs). A total of 15744 B-scans from 269 intermediate AMD patients and 115 normal subjects were used in this study (split on subject level in 80% train, 10% validation and 10% test). From each OCT B-scan, three ROIs were extracted: retina, complex between retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and Bruch membrane (BM), and choroid (CHO). These ROIs were obtained using two different methods: masking and cropping. In addition to the six ROIs, the whole OCT B-scan and the binary mask corresponding to the segmentation of the RPE-BM complex were used. For each subset, a convolutional neural network (based on VGG16 architecture and pre-trained on ImageNet) was trained and tested. The performance of the models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. All trained models presented an AUROC, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity equal to or higher than 0.884, 0.816, 0.685, and 0.644, respectively. The model trained on the whole OCT B-scan presented the best performance (AUROC = 0.983, accuracy = 0.927, sensitivity = 0.862, specificity = 0.913). The models trained on the ROIs obtained with the cropping method led to significantly higher outcomes than those obtained with masking, with the exception of the retinal tissue, where no statistically significant difference was observed between cropping and masking (p = 0.47). This study demonstrated that while using the complete OCT B-scan provided the highest accuracy in classifying intermediate AMD, models trained on specific ROIs such as the RPE-BM complex or the choroid can still achieve high performance.

  We developed a deep learning algorithm to identify major tissue structures of the optic nerve head (ONH) in 3D optical coherence tomography ( OCT) scans. A classification algorithm was designed using 150 OCT volumes to perform 3-class classifications (1: ODD, 2: papilledema, 3: healthy) strictly from their drusen and prelamina swelling scores. Our AI approach accurately discriminated ODD from papilledema, using a single OCT scan.
