An Efficient Lens Structures Segmentation Method on AS-OCT Images

Lens structures segmentation on anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) images is a fundamental task for cataract grading analysis. In this paper, in order to reduce the computational cost while keeping the segmentation accuracy, we propose an efficient segmentation method for lens structures segmentation. At first, we adopt an efficient semantic segmentation network in the work, and used it to extract the lens area image instead of the conventional object detection method, and then used it once again to segment the lens structures. Finally, we introduce the curve fitting processing (CFP) on the segmentation results. Experiment results show that our method has good performance on accuracy and processing speed, and could be applied to CASIA II device for practical applications.
