ARCOS framework achieves zero-shot corneal layer segmentation across OCT devices

Researchers have developed ARCOS, a novel framework for segmenting corneal layers in optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. This patch-based, zero-shot boundary localization method predicts heatmaps of corneal interfaces, which are then stitched together to create continuous layer segmentations. ARCOS demonstrated high accuracy in cross-device evaluations, outperforming existing segmentation baselines and supporting quantitative analysis of corneal morphology. AI

IMPACT This zero-shot segmentation framework could improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency in ophthalmology by enabling automated analysis of corneal morphology across different OCT devices.
