New AI model improves retinal fluid segmentation with uncertainty estimation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed an attention-guided TransUNet model for segmenting retinal fluid in optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans. This model addresses the challenge of segmentation model performance degradation across different OCT scanners by incorporating a domain-adaptive normalization scheme and an uncertainty estimation. The uncertainty estimate effectively highlights areas where expert graders disagree, providing a valuable clinical triage signal. AI

IMPACT This model could improve the efficiency and accuracy of diagnosing and treating macular diseases by providing clinicians with a more actionable segmentation signal.
