Agreement study between color and IR retinal images based on retinal vasculature morphological parameters

Abstract

Background: Color fundus photography have been extensively used to explore the link between retinal morphology changes associated with various disease i.e. Diabetic Retinopathy, Glaucoma. The development of multimodal imaging system that integrates Infrared Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope (IR-SLO) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) could help in studying these diseases at an early stage. The aim of this study was to test the agreement between the retinal vasculature parameters from the Infrared images obtained from optical coherence tomography and color fundus imaging. Methods: The IR and Color retinal images were obtained from 16 volunteer participants and seven retinal vessel parameters,..
