Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIndexing Medical Images Using the Wavelet Transform: Application to Retinal ImagesSouad Meziane Tani, Abdelhafid BessaidContent-Based Image Retrieval Systems (CBIR) provide effective support to the doctor to find relevant images using their visual content. Current medical systems are unable to provide accurate and precise results. To solve this problem, effective indexing algorithms are required to extract the contents of the images. In this study, the method of indexing image from the energy coefficients of the … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2014 · 6,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA MODIFIED SPATIAL FUZZY C-MEANS CLUSTERING ALGORITHM FOR DETECTING GLAUCOMAIN RETINAL FUNDUS IMAGESS. J. Grace Shoba, A. Brintha ThereseGlaucoma is a disease which affects the eye and causes blindness. It is an ophthalmologist disease characterized by an increase in Intraocular Pressure (IOP). The glaucoma usually affects the optic disc on the retina which increases the cup size. There are various parameters to identify and diagnose glaucoma. The clustering technique is introduced to detect the glaucoma from the optic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 5 Mar 2014 · 7,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBLOOD VESSEL DIAMETER MEASUREMENT ON RETINAL IMAGENidhal K. El Abbadi, Enas Al SaadiAccurate measurement of vessel diameters on retinal images plays an important part in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases and early signs of certain systemic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension. In this study we develop new method based on computer aided to determine the width of retinal blood vessels by analysing the color fundus image. Retinal vessel diameter was measured based on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of D- and L-Glucose and Mannitol on Retinal Capillary Cells: Inhibition by Nanomolar AminoguanidineYongxin Yu, Wei Li, Barbara Wojciechowski et al.Hyperglycemia may contribute directly to pericyte loss and capillary leakage in early diabetic retinopathy. To elucidate relative contributions of glycation, glycoxidation, sugar autoxidation, osmotic stress and metabolic effects in glucose-mediated capillary damage, we tested the effects of D-glucose, L-glucose, mannitol and the potentially protective effects of aminoguanidine on cultured bovine retinal capillary pericytes and endothelial cells. Media (containing 5 mM … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,749 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSorbitol-Induced Diabetic-Like Retinal Lesions in Rats: Microscopic StudyGaber A. RamadanThe present study investigated the sorbitol toxicity on the retinas of normal albino rats and founded by the light microscope that intra-peritoneal injection of Sorbitol (10-mg/kg-body weight per day) for 24 weeks produced similar diabetic like retinal lesions in these rats. The retinopathic effects of sorbitol injection affect retinal microvessels, pigment epithelium, neural retina and glial cells. Cytoplasmic vacuolation of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHE CLINICAL APPLICATIONS FOR AUTOMATIC DETECTION OF EXUDATESK. Wisaeng, N. Hiransakolwong, E. PothirukNowadays, the retinal imaging technology has been widely used for segmenting and detecting the exudates in diabetic retinopathy patients. Unfortunately, the retinal images in Thailand are poor-quality images. Therefore, detecting of exudates in a large number by screening programs, are very expensive in professional time and may cause human error. In this study, the clinical applications for detection of exudates … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 27 Sep 2014 · 6,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIDENTIFICATION OF EXUDATES USING FUZZY MATHEMATICAL MORPHOLOGYKittipol Wisaeng, Nualsawat Hiransakolwong, Ekkarat PothirukDiabetic Retinopathy is the damage to the retina caused by complication and the most common cause of blindness in Thailand. Retinal image is essential for expert ophthalmologists to diagnose diseases. Several of method can achieve good performance on retinal feature are clearly visible. Unfortunately, the color retinal image in Thailand are low-resolution images. The existing method cannot identified low-resolution image. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 6,554 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHerpetic Viral RetinitisHidetaka NomaHuman Herpes Virus (HHV) is a DNA virus and is the most important viral pathogen causing intraocular inflammation. HHV is classified into types 1-8. Among these types, HHV-1, HHV-2, HHV-3 Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) and HHV-5 Cytomegalovirus (CMV) are known to cause herpetic viral retinitis, including acute retinal necrosis and CMV retinitis. Herpes viral retinitis can be diagnosed from characteristic … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2013 · 12,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptiCNN: Local thresholding segmentation and CNN with SVM Approach for Diabetic Retinopathy Detection and Classification of Fundus ImagesAnju Mishra, Mrinal Pandey, Laxman SinghDiabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a progressive eye disease that can lead to vision loss and blindness if left untreated. Ophthalmologists diagnose DR using medical imaging modalities such as fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT); however, manual interpretation of these images is time-consuming and subject to inter-observer variability. While DR is irreversible, vision loss can be prevented through early detection … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 15 Dec 2025 · 2,153 accessesView PDFCite
