Background:
Modern retinal imaging creates gigantic amounts of data (big data) of anatomic information. At the same time patient numbers and interventions are increasing exponentially.
Objective:
Introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) for optimization of personalized therapy and diagnosis.
Material And Methods:
Deep learning was introduced for automated segmentation and recognition of risk factors and activity levels in retinal diseases.
Results:
Automated algorithms enable the precise identification and quantification of retinal fluid in all compartments. Early detection of retinopathy in diabetes or glaucoma or risk determination for the development of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are possible as well as an individual visual prognosis and evaluation of the need for retreatment in intravitreal injection therapy.
Conclusion:
Methods using AI constitute a breakthrough perspective for the introduction of individualized medicine and optimization of diagnosis and therapy, screening and prognosis.
