Content based retrieval of retinal OCT scans using twin CNN

ABSTRACT: Retinal imaging helps to detect retinal and cardiovascular abnormalities. Among these abnormalities, Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) and Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), both are frequent retinal degenerative diseases leading to blindness. Content based retinal OCT scan retrieval process makes use of characteristic features to retrieve similar Optical Coherent Tomography (OCT) scans, index-wise, from a database with minimal human intervention. A number of existing methods take care of segmentation and identification of retinal landmarks and pathologies from OCT volumes. As per the literature survey, till date, no papers are there which deal with the retrieval of retinal OCT scans. In this work, we propose a retrieval system for retinal OCT scans which extracts feature maps of both quer
