Researchers have developed a novel framework for glaucoma screening using fundus images, integrating dynamic multi-scale feature learning with anatomical priors. This approach addresses limitations of purely data-driven models by employing a tri-branch structure to analyze global retinal context, optic cup/disc characteristics, and pathological regions. A key innovation is the Dynamic Window Mechanism, which adaptively identifies informative image patches, and a Knowledge-Enhanced Convolutional Block Attention Module that leverages a pre-trained foundation model (RETFound) to guide spatial attention and reduce noise. Evaluations on the AIROGS dataset show state-of-the-art performance with an AUC of 98.5% and accuracy of 94.6%, demonstrating improved detection of referable glaucoma and robust cross-domain generalization on the SMDG-19 benchmark.
