Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods and systems for the identification and characterization of fluid accumulation in the retina using OCT imaging. The disclosed methods and systems are directed to the automated segmentation of retinal fluid using 2D or 3D structural OCT scan images. Approaches for visualization and quantification of both intraretinal and subretinal fluid are presented. Methods are also disclosed for using OCT angiography data to improve the quality of retinal fluid segmentation, and to provide combined visualization of fluid accumulation and retinal vasculature to inform clinical interpretation of results.
