Embodiment Construction

[0041] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the protection scope of the present invention should not be limited thereby.

[0042] see figure 1 , figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fiber-optic frequency-domain optical coherence tomography system. It includes a low-coherence light source 1, an isolator 2 is placed in the direction of the output beam of the low-coherence light source, the output end of the isolator is connected to a port 31 of a coupler 3, and the coupler 3 divides the light into a reference arm optical path 4 and a sample arm Optical path 5, the output light from port 33 of the coupler 3 passes through the collimating lens 41 of the reference arm and then irradiates on the reference plane mirror 42, and the output light from port 34 of the coupler 3 passes through the collimating lens 51 of the sample arm and then passes through the two-dimensional scanni...

Abstract

The invention provides an optical coherence tomography retina image layering method. The method comprises the steps of: firstly, carrying out de-noising preprocessing on an image; then setting a variable threshold for each A-scan image, carrying out segmentation layer by layer, and obtaining a preliminary layering result; and then carrying out continuity and integrity judgment on the preliminary layering result of each layer, correcting unsatisfactory segmentation points, and accurately and efficiently carrying out layering on the OCT retina image. The optical coherence tomography retina image layering method has the advantages that good layering processing can be carried out on the optical coherence tomography retina image which is high in noise and low in contrast and even has complex structures such as blood vessels, and the influences of a single threshold and high speckle noise on the retina layering effect are effectively reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to optical coherence tomography (Optical Coherence Tomography, OCT for short) images, in particular to a method for layering retinal images of optical coherence tomography. Background technique [0002] Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive high-resolution biomedical optical imaging technology that can detect microstructures inside biological tissues in vivo, and has been widely used in the field of ophthalmic retinal imaging. Quantitative measurement of the total thickness of retinal layers and some specific layers such as retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness can be applied to the diagnosis of highly blinding ophthalmic diseases such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. Compared with artificial retina layering, which is time-consuming and has limited accuracy, automatic retinal layering methods can improve layering efficiency and accuracy at the same time. [0003] There is a retina layering method ...
