New framework analyzes retinal vessel geometry for disease detection

Researchers have developed a new framework called BTECF to analyze retinal vessel geometry for disease detection. This framework abstracts vascular networks into Bézier segments, allowing for explicit manipulation of anatomical features like tortuosity and caliber. The system was validated on datasets for diabetic retinopathy, ischemic stroke, and Alzheimer's disease, demonstrating its ability to isolate causal relationships between vessel structure and disease classification.

    A General Bézier Tree Encoding Counterfactual Framework for Retinal-Vessel-Mediated Disease Analysis

    The geometry of the retinal vessel is a key biomarker of vascular diseases, yet clinical evidence remains primarily observational. Existing generative counterfactuals intervene only at the image-level disease label, failing to isolate explicit anatomical structure. To address thi…
