The goal is to automatically detect the appearance of Cystoid Macular Edema (CME) in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images. The deep learning technique used, Convolutional Neural Networks, takes as an input patches of pixels from within the retina. These patches were generated from previous segmentation of retinal images. A further segmentation of the retina is performed using an image processing algorithm called SLIC. Every superpixel thus generated, after being labeled as in the OCT scan, is fed into the neural network to detect the cyst.
