A surgical training system and method. The system comprises means for recording reference data representing a reference manipulation of a computer generated model of an object by a master user; means for physically guiding a trainee user based on the recorded reference data during a training manipulation of the model of the object by the trainee user; and means for recording assessment data representing an assessment manipulation of the model of the object by the trainee user without guidance.

Robot assisted surgical training

A two-dimensional retinal fundus image of the retinal fundus of an eye is processed by optic disc segmentation () followed by cup segmentation. Data derived from the optic disc segmentation (i.e. the output of the disc segmentation () and/or data derived from the output of the optic disc segmentation step, e.g. by a smoothing operation) and data derived from the out-put of the optic cup segmentation (i.e. the output of the cup segmentation () and/or data derived from the output of the optic disc segmentation, e.g. by a smoothing operation) are fed () to an adaptive model which has been trained to generate from such inputs a value indicative of cup-to-disc ratio (CDR) of the eye. The CDR is indicative of glaucoma. Thus, the method can be used to screen patients for glaucoma.
