An artificial intelligence tool accurately quantifies corneal neovascularisation (CoNV) areas from slit-lamp images. This AI-powered analysis shows high accuracy, suggesting its potential for clinical use in CoNV assessment.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence

Background:

  • Corneal neovascularisation (CoNV) poses a significant challenge in ophthalmology.
  • Accurate quantification of CoNV is crucial for effective treatment monitoring.
  • Manual assessment of CoNV can be time-consuming and subjective.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate an AI-based image analysis tool for measuring corneal neovascularisation.
  • To automate the quantification of CoNV area from slit-lamp images.
  • To assess the performance of the AI tool against manual measurements.

Main Methods:

  • Deep learning (U-Net) model trained on manually annotated slit-lamp images of CoNV.
  • Sixfold cross-validation used for performance evaluation.

  • Intersection over union (IoU) metric employed to assess accuracy.
  • Main Results:

    • The AI tool achieved high IoU scores for total corneal area (90.0%-95.5%) and non-vascularised area (76.6%-82.2%).
    • High specificity was observed for detecting both total corneal area (96.4%-98.6%) and non-vascularised area (96.6%-98.0%).
    • The algorithm demonstrated strong performance in segmenting and detecting CoNV.

    Conclusions:

    • The AI tool exhibits high accuracy in quantifying CoNV areas compared to ophthalmologist measurements.
    • The developed automated tool shows promise for clinical application in CoNV assessment.
    • AI-powered image analysis can provide objective and efficient CoNV quantification.
