摘要:
A method for detecting disc haemorrhages in a retinal fundus image. The method includes (a) identifying a ring-shaped region of interest in the retinal fundus image encompassing the optic disc boundary (b) removing blood vessel regions in the identified region of interest (c) detecting candidate disc haemorrhages from the removed blood vessels regions in the identified region of interest and (d) screening the candidate disc haemorrhages. The detected disc haemorrhages may be used to aid in the detection of glaucoma.
