Daftar Isi:
  • Glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy (DR) are the two most common retinal related diseases occurred in the world. Glaucoma can be diagnosed by measuring optic cup to disc ratio (CDR) defined as optic cup to optic disc vertical diameter ratio of retinal fundus image. A computer based optic disc is expected to assist the ophthalmologist to find their location which are necessary for glaucoma and DR diagnosis. However, many optic disc detection algorithms available now are commonly non-automatic and only work in healthy retinal image. Therefore, there is not information on how optic disc in retinal image of unhealthy patient can be extracted computationally. In this research work, the method for automated detection of optic disc on retinal colour fundus images has been developed to facilitate and assist ophthalmologists in the diagnosis of retinal related diseases. The results indicated that the proposed method can be implemented in computer aided diagnosis of glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy system development.
