Classification of Diabetic and Non Diabetic Retinal Images Using Generalized Fractal Dimension
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method to study the changes in the retinal vasculature of diabetic patients is proposed. Generalized fractal dimension followed by canny edge detection method is used to classify diabetic people from healthy one. Statistical analysis is also done to verify the classification results.

Fractal, multifractal and lacunarity analysis applied in retinal regions of diabetic patients with and without non- proliferative diabetic retinopathy
The aim of this study was to evaluate the blood vascular network of the retina and its regions in diabetic patients with and without signs of mild early diabetic retinopathy by using number of bifurcation points, fractal and multifractal methods. We used 33 segmented images of retinographies, 28 corresponding to the retinographies that did not show any sign of diabetic retinopathy and 5 diagnos...
متن کاملFractals for Complexity Analysis of Diabetic Retinopathy in Retinal Vasculature Images
Arterial pattern and morphology of distribution is damaged because of diabetes resulting in retinal vasculature deformation. This aspect is studied in terms of quantification of the degree of complexity associated with the distribution of blood vessels in eye for healthy and diabetic humans. Retina images of fifteen healthy subjects are compared with those of diabetic subjects. It is found that...
متن کاملQuantitative Assessment of Early Diabetic Retinopathy Using Fractal Analysis
OBJECTIVE Fractal analysis can quantify the geometric complexity of the retinal vascular branching pattern and may therefore offer a new method to quantify early diabetic microvascular damage. In this study, we examined the relationship between retinal fractal dimension and retinopathy in young individuals with type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study ...
متن کاملRelationship between diabetes and grayscale fractal dimensions of retinal vasculature in the Indian population
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus is rapidly increasing in the Indian population. The purpose of this study was to identify changes in the retinal vasculature of diabetic people, ahead of visual impairments. Grayscale Fractal Dimension (FD) analysis of retinal images was performed on people with type 2 diabetes from an Indian population. METHODS A cross-sectional study comprising 189 Optic Disc (O...
متن کاملCan the fractal dimension be applied for the early diagnosis of non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy?
The fractal dimension has been employed as a useful parameter in the diagnosis of retinal disease. Avakian et al. (Curr Eye Res 2002; 24: 274-280), comparing the vascular pattern of normal patients with mild to moderate non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), found a significant difference between them only in the macular region. This significant difference in the box-counting fractal di...
