  • Publication number: 20240081642
    Abstract: A retinal vessel shadow view optical coherence tomography (RVSV-OCT) image can be created by receiving, at an enhanced OCT processing system, volumetric OCT scan of a patient. The system can segment the volumetric OCT scan to determine layer boundaries and delineate a boundary of interest based on the determined layer boundaries of the segmented volumetric OCT scan. En face vascular information can be extracted to create an RVSV-OCT image by determining a first offset from the boundary of interest and a second offset from the boundary of interest; extracting volumetric data from an area between the first offset and the second offset to create a three-dimensional volume; and identifying a two-dimensional surface from the three-dimensional volume, the two-dimensional surface being the RVSV-OCT image. The RVSV-OCT image can be provided for analysis, for example, to evaluate retinal vascular disease in preterm infants at risk for retinopathy of prematurity.
