[0058] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clear, the following further describes this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.
[0059] The fundus image processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the application environment shown in Figure 1. Therein, the optical coherence tomography scanner 102 communicates with the server 104 via a network. The data storage system can store data that the server 104 needs to process. Optionally, the optical coherence tomography scanner 102 is used to obtain retinal optical coherence tomography images and corresponding retinal blood flow images. The data storage system can be integrated on the optical coherence tomography scanner 102, or it can be placed on the server 104 or on the cloud or other network servers. The server 104 can be implemented as an independent server or a server cluster consisting of multiple servers.
[0060] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , a fundus image processing method is provided. The method is described by taking the server 104 in FIG1 as an example, and includes the following steps:
[0061] S201, obtaining a retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding retinal blood flow image of a target eye.
[0062] Optionally, an optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanner is used to scan the retina of the target eye to obtain a retinal optical coherence tomography image. Retinal blood flow images are generated using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). Figure 3 shows a retinal blood flow image; the black dots in region ① represent blood flow signals in the image. Figure 4 shows a retinal optical coherence tomography image.
[0063] S202: Input the retinal optical coherence tomography image and the corresponding retinal blood flow image into a retinal lesion detection model to obtain a retinal lesion detection result of the target eye.
[0064] In an embodiment of the present application, the pre-trained retinal lesion detection model can detect at least 22 types of lesions, including epiretinal membrane, intraretinal hyperreflective material, retinal atrophy, retinal pigment epithelial disorder, retinal hole, drusen, serous retinal pigment epithelial detachment, non-serous retinal pigment epithelial detachment, subretinal fluid, intraretinal fluid, choroidal mass, choroidal pit, retinoschisis, preretinal hemorrhage, retinal middle cell edema, retinal inner cell edema, intraretinal hemorrhage, subretinal hyperreflective material, posterior vitreous detachment, vitreomacular traction, focal ellipsoidal band loss and outer retinal tube formation, etc. Among them, the retinal lesion detection model can be a deep neural network model, such as YOLOv7 model, YOLOv5 model, DETR model, YOLOX model, YOLOR model, EfficientDet model, Faster-RCNN model, YOLOv6 model, YOLOv8 model and PPYOLOE model.
[0065] The retinal lesion detection results may include information such as lesion type, lesion location, lesion area and lesion diameter.
[0066] It should be noted that the retinal lesion detection model in the related art can detect about 10 types of lesions. Therefore, the retinal lesion detection model introduced in the embodiment of the present application solves the problem that the related art can only detect a few types of lesions.
[0067] In the fundus image processing method provided in the embodiments of the present application, a retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding retinal blood flow image of the target eye are obtained, and then the retinal optical coherence tomography image and the corresponding retinal blood flow image are input into a retinal lesion detection model to obtain a retinal lesion detection result for the target eye. By introducing the retinal blood flow image and combining it with the retinal optical coherence tomography image to determine the retinal lesion detection result for the target eye, the retinal lesion detection result obtained in this manner is more accurate, thereby improving the accuracy of fundus lesion detection.
[0068] By acquiring retinal optical coherence tomography images and corresponding retinal blood flow images from different directions, the two sets of data from different directions can be used to complement each other, preventing the omission of lesions and improving the accuracy of the detection results. Based on this, in one embodiment, an optional method for acquiring retinal optical coherence tomography images and retinal blood flow images is provided. As shown in Figure 5, the following steps may be included:
[0069] S301, acquiring a three-dimensional retinal structure image and a three-dimensional retinal blood flow image of a target eye.
[0070] S302, acquiring a plurality of first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and a plurality of second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images based on the three-dimensional retinal structure image; and determining each first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and each second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image as a retinal optical coherence tomography image.
[0071] S303: Acquire a plurality of first-direction retinal blood flow images and a plurality of second-direction retinal blood flow images according to the three-dimensional retinal blood flow image; and determine each first-direction retinal blood flow image and each second-direction retinal blood flow image as a retinal blood flow image.
[0072] In an embodiment of the present application, the first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image can be a transverse retinal optical coherence tomography image, and the second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image can be a longitudinal retinal optical coherence tomography image; similarly, the first-direction retinal blood flow image can be a transverse retinal blood flow image, and the second-direction retinal blood flow image can be a longitudinal retinal blood flow image.
[0073] Optionally, for three-dimensional retinal structure images, sampling can be performed from two different directions, namely the horizontal and vertical directions, to obtain multiple first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and multiple second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images, and then each first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and each second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image can be determined as a retinal optical coherence tomography image.
[0074] Similarly, for three-dimensional retinal blood flow images, sampling can be performed from two different directions, horizontal and vertical, to obtain multiple first-direction retinal blood flow images and multiple second-direction retinal blood flow images, and then each first-direction retinal blood flow image and each second-direction retinal blood flow image can be determined as a retinal blood flow image.
[0075] The above describes the process of obtaining a 3D retinal structure image and a 3D retinal blood flow image of a target eye through 3D scanning, and then obtaining a retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding retinal blood flow image based on the 3D retinal structure image and the 3D retinal blood flow image. In this embodiment, a retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding retinal blood flow image can also be obtained by directly performing a 2D scan on the target object.
[0076] Optionally, a plurality of first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and a plurality of second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images are acquired; each first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and each second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image are determined as retinal optical coherence tomography images; a plurality of first-direction retinal blood flow images and a plurality of second-direction retinal blood flow images are acquired; each first-direction retinal blood flow image and each second-direction retinal blood flow image are determined as retinal blood flow images.
[0077] For the target eye of the target object, image acquisition is performed at different positions of the target eye in the first direction and the second direction, so that a plurality of first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and corresponding plurality of first-direction retinal blood flow images, as well as a plurality of second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and corresponding plurality of second-direction retinal blood flow images can be obtained.
[0078] It should be noted that when inputting the retinal optical coherence tomography image and the corresponding retinal blood flow image into the retinal lesion detection model to obtain the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye, a first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding first-direction retinal blood flow image can be used as a group, and each first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and each first-direction retinal blood flow image can be input into the retinal lesion detection model in batches. Alternatively, a second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding second-direction retinal blood flow image can be used as a group, and each second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and each second-direction retinal blood flow image can be input into the retinal lesion detection model in batches. It should be noted that a group of first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and first-direction retinal blood flow images correspond to the same imaging position of the target eye. In the embodiment of the present application, by using image data in two directions to obtain the lesion detection result, the detection results obtained from data in different directions can provide data support to each other, so as to obtain the retinal lesion detection result faster and more accurately.
[0079] Alternatively, multiple retinal optical coherence tomography images in the first direction and corresponding multiple retinal blood flow images in the first direction, as well as multiple retinal optical coherence tomography images in the second direction and corresponding multiple retinal blood flow images in the second direction, may be simultaneously input into the retinal lesion detection model to obtain retinal lesion detection results for the target eye. In the embodiment of the present application, by simultaneously inputting all retinal optical coherence tomography images and corresponding retinal blood flow images in different directions into the retinal detection model to obtain retinal lesion detection results, more reference quantities are obtained during the detection process, thereby obtaining more accurate retinal lesion detection results.
[0080] In addition, in the follow-up scenario of the target object, the retinal optical coherence tomography image and the corresponding retinal blood flow image are input into the retinal lesion detection model to obtain the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye. The method can be to input a first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding first-direction retinal blood flow image into the retinal lesion detection model to obtain the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye, or to input a second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding second-direction retinal blood flow image into the retinal lesion detection model to obtain the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye. In an embodiment of the present application, in the follow-up scenario, the target object is directly scanned in two dimensions to obtain a first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding first-direction retinal blood flow image, or directly obtain a second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding second-direction retinal blood flow image, and input them into the retinal lesion detection model to quickly obtain the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye, providing a method suitable for quickly obtaining lesion detection results in a follow-up scenario.
[0081] In an embodiment of the present application, a method is provided for sampling three-dimensional retinal structure images and three-dimensional retinal blood flow images from different directions, which can obtain multiple sets of retinal optical coherence tomography images and retinal blood flow images, providing data support for subsequent determination of retinal lesion detection results.
[0082] When detecting fundus lesions, one can usually choose to train a network model and obtain the lesion detection type in the input image based on the trained model. To avoid false positive results, an optional method for determining retinal lesion detection results is provided in one embodiment. As shown in Figure 6, the following steps may be included:
[0083] S401: Inputting a retinal optical coherence tomography image and a corresponding retinal blood flow image into a retinal lesion detection model to obtain a first lesion detection result and a first confidence level of the first lesion detection result.
[0084] S402: Determine a retinal lesion detection result of the target eye according to the first lesion detection result and a first confidence level of the first lesion detection result.
[0085] Optionally, the retinal optical coherence tomography image and the corresponding retinal blood flow image are input into a pre-trained retinal lesion detection model, and the retinal lesion detection model outputs a first lesion detection result and a first confidence level of the first lesion detection result, and then the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye is determined based on the first lesion detection result and the first confidence level of the first lesion detection result.
[0086] In an embodiment of the present application, the retinal lesion detection result of the target eye can be determined based on the first lesion detection result and the first confidence level of the first lesion detection result, thereby providing an optional method for quickly determining the retinal lesion detection result.
[0087] When removing false positive results based on the confidence level output by the retinal lesion detection model, a method of introducing a preset confidence threshold can generally be used to filter out false positive detection results. Based on this, in one embodiment, another optional method for retinal lesion detection results is provided. As shown in Figure 7, the following steps may be included:
[0088] S501 : Determine a second lesion detection result according to the first lesion detection result, a first confidence level, and a first preset confidence threshold.
[0089] S502, obtaining retinal layering results of retinal optical coherence tomography images.
[0090] S503: Determine the retinal lesion detection result according to the retinal stratification result and the second lesion detection result.
[0091] In the embodiment of the present application, different lesion types are set with different first preset confidence thresholds, which can usually be determined based on the application scenario (physical examination / diagnosis) and the degree of impact of the disease type on the patient's health.
[0092] Optionally, for any first lesion detection result, the first confidence level of the lesion detection result is compared with a corresponding first preset confidence threshold. If the first confidence level of the lesion detection result is greater than the corresponding first preset confidence threshold, the first lesion detection result is considered the second lesion detection result. Furthermore, the retinal optical coherence tomography image can be input into a pre-trained retinal layering model to obtain a retinal layering result of the retinal optical coherence tomography image. The retinal lesion detection result can then be determined based on the retinal layering result and the second lesion detection result.
[0093] Among them, the retinal stratification results may include the inner limiting membrane, nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell layer, inner plexiform layer, inner nuclear layer, outer plexiform layer, outer nuclear layer, retinal pigment epithelium, external limiting membrane, choroid layer, etc.
[0094] In an embodiment of the present application, an optional method for quickly determining the retinal lesion detection results of the target eye is provided.
[0095] In order to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the fundus lesion detection results, the second lesion detection results can be optimized again according to the retinal layering results. Based on this, in one embodiment, an optional method for determining the retinal lesion detection results is provided. As shown in Figure 8, the following steps may be included:
[0096] S601, determining a third lesion detection result according to the retinal stratification result and the second lesion detection result.
[0097] S602: Cluster the third lesion detection result to obtain a retinal lesion detection result.
[0098] In one implementation, the lesion type and lesion location information in the second lesion detection result may be obtained; and the third lesion detection result may be determined based on the lesion type, lesion location information, and retinal stratification result.
[0099] Optionally, the detected lesion type and lesion location information can be obtained from the second lesion detection result, and then the lesion type, lesion location information and retinal stratification results can be input into a pre-trained model, and the model outputs a third lesion detection result.
[0100] In the embodiment of the present application, the accuracy and reliability of the fundus lesion detection results are further improved by further optimizing the second lesion detection results according to the retinal stratification results.
[0101] Because some lesions occur at specific locations in the retinal layering results, false positive test results can be excluded based on this consideration. Based on this, in one embodiment, an optional method for determining the third lesion detection result is provided. As shown in Figure 9, the following steps may be included:
[0102] S701, matching the lesion location information with the retinal layering result to obtain a matching result.
[0103] S702: Determine a third lesion detection result based on the matching result and the lesion type.
[0104] In the embodiment of the present application, the matching result indicates that the lesion is located at a corresponding position in the retinal layering result.
[0105] Optionally, the lesion location information is matched with the retinal stratification results to determine which layer or layers of the retinal stratification results the lesion location information is located in, and then, based on the matching results and the lesion type, it is determined whether the location of the lesion corresponding to the lesion type in the retinal optical coherence tomography image is consistent with the location where the lesion type should actually occur. If so, the second lesion detection result is determined to be the third lesion detection result. For example, posterior vitreous detachment occurs at the junction of the vitreous and the internal limiting membrane. If the posterior vitreous detachment lesion is detected in the second lesion detection result, the lesion location information is first matched with the retinal stratification results to determine which layer of the lesion is located in the retinal stratification results, and then determine whether the layer is at the junction of the vitreous and the internal limiting membrane; if so, the second lesion detection result is determined to be the third lesion detection result; if not, the second lesion detection result is determined to be a false positive, and the lesion detection result is removed.
[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, an optional method for determining the third lesion detection result is provided.
[0107] When clustering the third lesion detection results to obtain the retinal lesion detection results of the target eye, in order to further improve the accuracy of the fundus lesion detection results, another filtering can be performed after clustering. Based on this, in one embodiment, another optional method for determining the retinal lesion detection results is provided. As shown in Figure 10, the following steps may be included:
[0108] S801 , clustering the third lesion detection result to obtain a clustered lesion detection result and a second confidence level of the clustered lesion detection result.
[0109] S802 : Determine a retinal lesion detection result according to the clustered lesion detection result, the second confidence level, and the second preset confidence threshold.
[0110] In the embodiment of the present application, the second confidence level is determined based on the first confidence level of the first lesion detection result included in the clustered lesion detection results; for example, the second confidence level can be obtained by taking the average, median, and maximum values of the first confidence levels of the included first lesion detection results. Similarly, different second preset confidence thresholds are set for different lesion types.
[0111] Optionally, the third lesion detection result is input into the spatial clustering algorithm for cluster analysis to obtain the cluster lesion detection result and the second confidence of the cluster lesion detection result. Then, for any cluster lesion detection result, the second confidence of the cluster lesion detection result is compared with the corresponding second preset confidence threshold. If the second confidence of the cluster lesion detection result is greater than the corresponding second preset confidence threshold, the cluster lesion detection result is determined to be a retinal lesion detection result.
[0112] It should be noted that the second confidence level needs to be set to be greater than the corresponding first confidence level, which can not only prevent the omission of lesions, but also make the final retinal lesion detection result relatively accurate.
[0113] In the embodiment of the present application, the second confidence level is introduced to filter the clustered lesion detection results to obtain retinal lesion detection results, thereby further improving the accuracy of the fundus lesion detection results.
[0114] After obtaining the retinal lesion detection results of the target eye, the retinal lesion detection results can be projected onto a fundus projection diagram or fundus image to obtain a fundus lesion distribution map, so as to quickly understand the lesion distribution of the target eye. Based on this, in one embodiment, an optional method for determining the fundus lesion distribution map is provided. As shown in Figure 11, the following steps may be included:
[0115] S901: Acquire a fundus projection image and / or fundus image of a target eye.
[0116] S902 : Projecting the retinal lesion detection result into a fundus projection diagram and / or a fundus image to obtain a fundus lesion distribution diagram of the target eye.
[0117] The fundus image refers to an image obtained by using any one of a fundus camera, a confocal scanning system ophthalmoscope, a confocal laser scanning ophthalmoscope, and a scanning laser ophthalmoscope.
[0118] Optionally, the pixel coordinate values of each pixel point in the retinal lesion detection result projected along the axial direction of the eye, as well as the fundus projection map and fundus image of the target eye, can be obtained. Then, based on the pixel coordinate values of each pixel point projected along the axial direction of the eye, the retinal lesion detection result is projected onto the fundus projection map and / or fundus image to obtain a fundus lesion distribution map of the target eye. As shown in Figure 12, a fundus lesion distribution map obtained based on the fundus projection map is shown; wherein, areas ②, ③, ④, and ⑤ respectively represent retinal lesion detection results corresponding to different types; as shown in Figure 13, a fundus lesion distribution map obtained based on the fundus image is shown; wherein, area ⑥ indicates the area where lesions are present.
[0119] In an embodiment of the present application, an optional method for obtaining a fundus lesion distribution map of a target eye is provided.
[0120] In addition, in one embodiment, the present application also provides an optional example of a fundus image processing method. As shown in FIG14 , the method includes:
[0121] S1001, acquiring a three-dimensional retinal structure image and a three-dimensional retinal blood flow image of a target eye.
[0122] S1002, acquiring a plurality of first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images and a plurality of second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography images based on the three-dimensional retinal structure image; and determining each first-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image and each second-direction retinal optical coherence tomography image as a retinal optical coherence tomography image.

[0124] S1004: Input the retinal optical coherence tomography image and the corresponding retinal blood flow image into a retinal lesion detection model to obtain a first lesion detection result and a first confidence level of the first lesion detection result.
