Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Glaucoma is the first leading cause of blindness in Japan. However, glaucoma only has a few warning signs or symptoms. Thus, screening is important to detect glaucoma in early stages. Fundus examination, in which fundus photographs are used, is one of the screening methods for the detection of nerve fiber layer defect (NFLD). In contrast, optic coherence tomography (OCT) examination is not a screening, but a diagnostic exam. Therefore, we investigated the deep learning system using both fundus photographs and OCT examination results to perform a better analysis on the fundus photographs alone. As a result, we could obtain 77% classification accuracy for normal/abnormal regions on fundus images using CNN trained with OCT data.
