3. PROJECT OVERVIEW
GOAL
The goal of this project is to create a GUI to
automatically segment Drusen and categorize the
Drusen into its various types

4. PROJECT OVERVIEW
SCOPE
This project will help the eye examiners to find Drusen in the
image and help save time in categorizing Drusen thereby
speedingHomogeneity (Comparing area between
up the examination of the retina.
RPE and Choroid) Homogeneity

5. LITERATURE REVIEW
KEY PAPER
Drusen Ultrastructure Imaging with Spectral Domain Optical
Coherence Tomography in Age-related Macular Degeneration -
Khanifar Aziz et al 2008
Quantitative Comparison of Drusen Segmented on SD-OCT versus
Drusen delineated on Color Fundus Photographs- Nieraj Jain et al
2010
Automatic segmentation of seven retinal layers in SDOCT images
congruent with expert manual segmentation - Stephanie J. Chiu
2010

7. HOMOGENEITY (COMPARING AREA
BETWEEN RPE AND CHOROID)
Homogeneous – compare the entire layer for uniformity
Non-homogeneous with a central core – varying
internal reflectivity with a distinct single focus of hyper-
reflectivity
Non-homogeneous without a central core– varying
internal reflectivity

70 no but some pecularity 183.9566 34.4765
18. BASED ON THIS ANALYSIS
A cut-off value for applying the
segmentation was decided
If the values was above the cut off it was
not segmented and the software proceeds
with classification directly

This template can be used as a starter file to give updates for project milestones.SectionsRight-click on a slide to add sections. Sections can help to organize your slides or facilitate collaboration between multiple authors.NotesUse the Notes section for delivery notes or to provide additional details for the audience. View these notes in Presentation View during your presentation. Keep in mind the font size (important for accessibility, visibility, videotaping, and online production)Coordinated colors Pay particular attention to the graphs, charts, and text boxes.Consider that attendees will print in black and white or grayscale. Run a test print to make sure your colors work when printed in pure black and white and grayscale.Graphics, tables, and graphsKeep it simple: If possible, use consistent, non-distracting styles and colors.Label all graphs and tables.
