Abstract
A system, method, and/or device for determinizing a quality measure of OCT structural data and/or OCTA functional data uses a machine learning model trained to provide a single overall quality measure, or a quality map distribution for the OCT/OCTA data based on the generation of multiple features maps extracted from one or more slab views of the OCT/OCTA data. The extracted feature maps may be different texture-type maps, and the machine model is trained to determine the quality measure based on the texture maps.
Claims19
A method for generating a quality measure of optical coherence tomography (OCT) data, comprising:
- acquiring a volume of OCT data;
- defining one or more slab views from the volume OCT data;
- generating a plurality of feature maps from each slab view;
- determining the quality measure based on image properties of the plurality of feature maps;
- displaying the quality measure or storing the quality measure for further processing.
