Automatic Determination of the Center of Macular Hole Using Optical Coherence Tomography En Face Images
To evaluate the automated determination of the center of an idiopathic macular hole (MH) by using swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) images with new macro-based algorithms in ImageJ and to compare the difference between the MH center measurements obtained automatically and manually.

description | To evaluate the automated determination of the center of an idiopathic macular hole (MH) by using swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) images with new macro-based algorithms in ImageJ and to compare the difference between the MH center measurements obtained automatically and manually. This cross-sectional study included 39 eyes of 39 elderly individuals (22 women, 17 men) with stage 3 and 4 MH. The MH center was automatically determined using the ImageJ macro. The foveal center was also manually identified by two masked examiners using horizontal and vertical serial B-scan OCT angiography images. The mean age was 68.8 ± 8.3 years. After adjusting for the effect of magnification, the mean distance between the MH center determined manually by Examiner 1 and that determined automatically was 15.5 ± 9.9 µm. The mean distance between the two manually determined measurements of the MH center was 20.3 ± 19.7 µm. These two mean distance values did not differ significantly (Welch t-test, p = 0.27) and was non-inferior (p < 0.0001). The automated ImageJ-based method for determining the MH center was comparable to manual methods. This study showed that automated measurements were non-inferior to manual measurements, and demonstrated a substitutable usefulness, at least for use in clinical practice. |
