  • Patent number: 7856135
    Abstract: An image analysis system provides for importing, normalizing and co-registering a plurality of ocular fundus images, or images obtained by their decomposition, analysis, processing, or synthesis. Differences between the image are determined and of those differences those that are meaningful (e.g., from a diagnostic point of view) are highlighted. Sequences of these differences, which reflect changes in the eye represented in the images, are synthesized so as to present a view of how the differences manifest over time. Structures of importance in the eye are overlapped so that the information may be presented in a meaningful fashion for diagnostic purposes.
