Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision loss in diabetic patients. Early identification of DR relies highly on standard color fundus photography (CFP), which faces limitations due to a restricted field of view and suboptimal image quality. Ultra-widefield (UWF) fundus images, offering broader retinal coverage, have emerged as a promising alternative. However, diagnosing DR based on UWF images is often time-consuming and laborious, highlighting the need for a unified, automated solution. In this work, we present a highly optimized lightweight Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) training pipeline based on MobileNet for the automated classification of diabetic macular edema (DME), a significant complication of DR. Our model significantly accelerates the analysis of UWF images compared to manual methods, enabling faster DR diagnosis and improved patient management.

摘要

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision loss in diabetic patients. Early identification of DR relies highly on standard color fundus photography (CFP), which faces limitations due to a restricted field of view and suboptimal image quality. Ultra-widefield (UWF) fundus images, offering broader retinal coverage, have emerged as a promising alternative. However, diagnosing DR based on UWF images is often time-consuming and laborious, highlighting the need for a unified, automated solution. In this work, we present a highly optimized lightweight Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) training pipeline based on MobileNet for the automated classification of diabetic macular edema (DME), a significant complication of DR. Our model significantly accelerates the analysis of UWF images compared to manual methods, enabling faster DR diagnosis and improved patient management. Notably, our approach achieved third place in the MICCAI UWF4DR 2024 Challenge for the Classification of Diabetic Macular Edema.
