Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to investigate whether a multifractal analysis can be applied to study choroidal blood vessels and help ophthalmologists in the early diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa (RP). In a case study, we used spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT), which is a noninvasive and highly sensitive imaging technique of the retina and choroid. The image of a choroidal branching pattern can be regarded as a multifractal. Therefore, we calculated the generalized Renyi point-centered dimensions, which are considered a measure of the inhomogeneity of data, to prove that it increases in patients with RP as compared to those in the control group.
摘要:
本文的目的是研究多重分形分析是否可用于研究脉络膜血管,并帮助眼科医生早期诊断视网膜色素变性(RP)。在一个案例研究中,我们使用了光谱域光学相干断层扫描(SDOCT),这是一种非侵入性和高度敏感的视网膜和脉络膜成像技术。脉络膜分支模式的图像可以被视为多重分形。因此,我们计算了广义Renyi点心维数,这被认为是数据不均匀性的度量,证明RP患者与对照组相比增加。
