Open Fundus Photograph Dataset with Pathologic Myopia Recognition and Anatomical Structure Annotation.

ABSTRACT: Pathologic myopia (PM) is a common blinding retinal degeneration suffered by highly myopic population. Early screening of this condition can reduce the damage caused by the associated fundus lesions and therefore prevent vision loss. Automated diagnostic tools based on artificial intelligence methods can benefit this process by aiding clinicians to identify disease signs or to screen mass populations using color fundus photographs as inputs. This paper provides insights about PALM, our open fundus imaging dataset for pathological myopia recognition and anatomical structure annotation. Our databases comprises 1200 images with associated labels for the pathologic myopia category and manual annotations of the optic disc, the position of the fovea and delineations of lesions such as patchy retinal atrophy (including peripapillary atrophy) and retinal detachment. In addition, this paper elaborates on other details such as the labeling process used to construct the database, the quality and characteristics of the samples and provides other relevant usage notes.

Project description:Background: Pathologic myopia (PM) associated with myopic maculopathy (MM) and "Plus" lesions is a major cause of irreversible visual impairment worldwide. Therefore, we aimed to develop a series of deep learning algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI)-models for automatic PM identification, MM classification, and "Plus" lesion detection based on retinal fundus images. Materials and Methods: Consecutive 37,659 retinal fundus images from 32,419 patients were collected. After excluding 5,649 ungradable images, a total dataset of 32,010 color retinal fundus images was manually graded for training and cross-validation according to the META-PM classification. We also retrospectively recruited 1,000 images from 732 patients from the three other hospitals in Zhejiang Province, serving as the external validation dataset. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and quadratic-weighted kappa score were calculated to evaluate the classification algorithms. The precision, recall, and F1-score were calculated to evaluate the object detection algorithms. The performance of all the algorithms was compared with the experts' performance. To better understand the algorithms and clarify the direction of optimization, misclassification and visualization heatmap analyses were performed. Results: In five-fold cross-validation, algorithm I achieved robust performance, with accuracy = 97.36% (95% CI: 0.9697, 0.9775), AUC = 0.995 (95% CI: 0.9933, 0.9967), sensitivity = 93.92% (95% CI: 0.9333, 0.9451), and specificity = 98.19% (95% CI: 0.9787, 0.9852). The macro-AUC, accuracy, and quadratic-weighted kappa were 0.979, 96.74% (95% CI: 0.963, 0.9718), and 0.988 (95% CI: 0.986, 0.990) for algorithm II. Algorithm III achieved an accuracy of 0.9703 to 0.9941 for classifying the "Plus" lesions and an F1-score of 0.6855 to 0.8890 for detecting and localizing lesions. The performance metrics in external validation dataset were comparable to those of the experts and were slightly inferior to those of cross-validation. Conclusion: Our algorithms and AI-models were confirmed to achieve robust performance in real-world conditions. The application of our algorithms and AI-models has promise for facilitating clinical diagnosis and healthcare screening for PM on a large scale.

Project description:BackgroundGlaucoma is one of the major causes of blindness; it is estimated that over 110 million people will be affected by glaucoma worldwide by 2040. Research on glaucoma detection using deep learning technology has been increasing, but the diagnosis of glaucoma in a large population with high incidence of myopia remains a challenge. This study aimed to provide a decision support system for the automatic detection of glaucoma using fundus images, which can be applied for general screening, especially in areas of high incidence of myopia.MethodsA total of 1,155 fundus images were acquired from 667 individuals with a mean axial length of 25.60 ± 2.0 mm at the National Taiwan University Hospital, Hsinchu Br. These images were graded based on the findings of complete ophthalmology examinations, visual field test, and optical coherence tomography into three groups: normal (N, n = 596), pre-perimetric glaucoma (PPG, n = 66), and glaucoma (G, n = 493), and divided into a training-validation (N: 476, PPG: 55, G: 373) and test (N: 120, PPG: 11, G: 120) sets. A multimodal model with the Xception model as image feature extraction and machine learning algorithms [random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), dense neural network (DNN), and others] was applied.ResultsThe Xception model classified the N, PPG, and G groups with 93.9% of the micro-average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) with tenfold cross-validation. Although normal and glaucoma sensitivity can reach 93.51% and 86.13% respectively, the PPG sensitivity was only 30.27%. The AUROC increased to 96.4% in the N + PPG and G groups. The multimodal model with the N + PPG and G groups showed that the AUROCs of RF, SVM, and DNN were 99.56%, 99.59%, and 99.10%, respectively; The N and PPG + G groups had less than 1% difference. The test set showed an overall 3%-5% less AUROC than the validation results.ConclusionThe multimodal model had good AUROC while detecting glaucoma in a population with high incidence of myopia. The model shows the potential for general automatic screening and telemedicine, especially in Asia.Trial registrationThe study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the National Taiwan University Hospital, Hsinchu Branch (no. NTUHHCB 108-025-E).

Project description:BackgroundDeep learning algorithms have been built for the detection of systemic and eye diseases based on fundus photographs. The retina possesses features that can be affected by gender differences, and the extent to which these features are captured via photography differs depending on the retinal image field.ObjectiveWe aimed to compare deep learning algorithms' performance in predicting gender based on different fields of fundus photographs (optic disc-centered, macula-centered, and peripheral fields).MethodsThis retrospective cross-sectional study included 172,170 fundus photographs of 9956 adults aged ≥40 years from the Singapore Epidemiology of Eye Diseases Study. Optic disc-centered, macula-centered, and peripheral field fundus images were included in this study as input data for a deep learning model for gender prediction. Performance was estimated at the individual level and image level. Receiver operating characteristic curves for binary classification were calculated.ResultsThe deep learning algorithms predicted gender with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.94 at the individual level and an AUC of 0.87 at the image level. Across the three image field types, the best performance was seen when using optic disc-centered field images (younger subgroups: AUC=0.91; older subgroups: AUC=0.86), and algorithms that used peripheral field images had the lowest performance (younger subgroups: AUC=0.85; older subgroups: AUC=0.76). Across the three ethnic subgroups, algorithm performance was lowest in the Indian subgroup (AUC=0.88) compared to that in the Malay (AUC=0.91) and Chinese (AUC=0.91) subgroups when the algorithms were tested on optic disc-centered images. Algorithms' performance in gender prediction at the image level was better in younger subgroups (aged <65 years; AUC=0.89) than in older subgroups (aged ≥65 years; AUC=0.82).ConclusionsWe confirmed that gender among the Asian population can be predicted with fundus photographs by using deep learning, and our algorithms' performance in terms of gender prediction differed according to the field of fundus photographs, age subgroups, and ethnic groups. Our work provides a further understanding of using deep learning models for the prediction of gender-related diseases. Further validation of our findings is still needed.

Project description:ObjectiveWe aimed to develop a deep learning (DL)-based algorithm for early glaucoma detection based on color fundus photographs that provides information on defects in the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and its thickness from the mapping and translating relations of spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) thickness maps.DesignDeveloping and evaluating an artificial intelligence detection tool.SubjectsPretraining paired data of color fundus photographs and SD-OCT images from 189 healthy participants and 371 patients with early glaucoma were used.MethodsThe variational autoencoder (VAE) network training architecture was used for training, and the correlation between the fundus photographs and RNFL thickness distribution was determined through the deep neural network. The reference standard was defined as a vertical cup-to-disc ratio of ≥0.7, other typical changes in glaucomatous optic neuropathy, and RNFL defects. Convergence indicates that the VAE has learned a distribution that would enable us to produce corresponding synthetic OCT scans.Main outcome measuresSimilarly to wide-field OCT scanning, the proposed model can extract the results of RNFL thickness analysis. The structural similarity index measure (SSIM) and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) were used to assess signal strength and the similarity in the structure of the color fundus images converted to an RNFL thickness distribution model. The differences between the model-generated images and original images were quantified.ResultsWe developed and validated a novel DL-based algorithm to extract thickness information from the color space of fundus images similarly to that from OCT images and to use this information to regenerate RNFL thickness distribution images. The generated thickness map was sufficient for clinical glaucoma detection, and the generated images were similar to ground truth (PSNR: 19.31 decibels; SSIM: 0.44). The inference results were similar to the OCT-generated original images in terms of the ability to predict RNFL thickness distribution.ConclusionsThe proposed technique may aid clinicians in early glaucoma detection, especially when only color fundus photographs are available.
