Abstract
A medical diagnostic apparatus includes a receiver circuit that receives three-dimensional data of an eye, and processing circuitry configured to segment the three-dimensional data into regions that include a target structural element and regions that do not include the target structural element to produce a segmented three-dimensional data set. The segmenting is performed using a plurality of segmentation algorithms. Each of the plurality of segmentation algorithms is trained separately on different two-dimensional data extracted from the three-dimensional data. The processing circuitry is further configured to generate at least one metric from the segmented three-dimensional data set, and evaluate a medical condition based on the at least one metric.
