Abstract
An example method includes generating, using a multi-scale block of a convolutional neural network (CNN), a first output image based on an optical coherence tomography (OCT) reflectance image of a retina and an OCT angiography (OCTA) image of the retina. The method further includes generating, using an encoder of the CNN, at least one second output image based on the first output image and generating, using a decoder of the CNN, a third output image based on the at least one second output image. An avascular map is generated based on the third output image. The avascular map indicates at least one avascular area of the retina depicted in the OCTA image.
