    摘要: Various methods for reducing artifacts in OCT images of an eye are described. In one exemplary method, three dimensional OCT image data of the eye is collected. Motion contrast information is calculated in the OCT image data. A first image and a second image are created from the motion contrast information. The first and the second images depict vasculature information regarding one or more upper portions and one or more deeper portions, respectively. The second image contains artifacts. Using an inverse calculation, a third image is determined that can be mixed with the first image to generate the second image. The third image depicts vasculature regarding the same one or more deeper portions as the second image but has reduced artifacts. A depth dependent correction method is also described that can be used in combination with the inverse problem based method to further reduce artifacts in OCT angiography images.

    摘要: An ophthalmic image diagnostic tool and method submits a test image to a neural network trained to identify abnormal regions of an ophthalmic image, to distinguish between multiple types of abnormalities, and to associate an abnormality type with each identified potentially abnormal region. Each potentially abnormal region in the test image is highlighted, and in response to a user-selection of a highlighted region, a previously diagnosed sample (e.g., from a library of samples) of the abnormality type associated with the selected highlighted region is displayed.
