Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a serious eye disease that originates from diabetes mellitus and is the most common cause of blindness in the developed countries. Early treatment can prevent patients to become affected from this condition or at least the progression of DR can be slowed down. The proposed system is used to detect microaneurysm (MA) in eye retinal images. An ensemble-based microaneu...

Left atrial myxoma commonly leads to cerebral embolic ischemic stroke. The subsequent formation of cerebral aneurysms due to myxomatous emboli is a phenomenon that may lead to severe neurologic complications such as intracerebral hemorrhage. In addition to the formation of aneurysms in cerebral arteries, we report here the unique picture of a retinal involvement consisting in microaneurysm form...

This report concerns a clinico-pathological study of 60 patients afflicted with primary pontine hemorrhage. The illness was fatal in 43, 17 patients survived. Ophthalmic signs, autonomic disturbances and transient visual hallucination were observed and discussed. A ruptured microaneurysm within the border of a pontine hematoma was detected in this study, and in the first report of such a finding.

PURPOSE To identify eyes of patients with diabetes type 2 that show progression of retinal disease within a 1-year period using noninvasive techniques. METHODS Three hundred seventy-four type 2 diabetic patients with mild nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study [ETDRS] level 20 or 35) were included in a 12-month prospective observational study to iden...

introduction: diabetic retinopathy (dr) is one of the most serious and most frequent eye diseases in the world and the most common cause of blindness in adults between 20 and 60 years of age. following 15 years of diabetes, about 2% of the diabetic patients are blind and 10% suffer from vision impairment due to dr complications. this paper addresses the automatic detection of microaneurysms (ma...

In this work, we propose a novel microaneurysm (MA) detection for early dieabetic ratinopathy screening using color fundus images. Since MA usually the first lesions to appear as a indicator of diabetic retinopathy, accurate detection of MA is necessary for treatment. Each pixel of the image is classified as either MA or non-MA using deep neural network with dropout training procedure using max...
