- Abstract
- Purpose: (1) To evaluate the performance of deep learning (DL) classifier in detecting glaucoma, based on wide-field swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) images. (2) To assess the performance of DL-based fusion methods in diagnosing glaucoma using a variety of wide-field SS-OCT images and compare their diagnostic abilities with that of conventional parameter-based methods. Methods: Overall, 675 eyes, including 258 healthy eyes and 417 eyes with glaucoma were enrolled in this retrospective observational study. Each single-page wide-field report (12x9 mm) of wide-field SS-OCT imaging provides different types of images that reflect the state of the eyes. A DL-based automated diagnosis system was proposed to detect glaucoma and identify its stage based on such images. We applied the convolutional neural network to each type of image to detect glaucoma. In addition, 2 fusion strategies, fusion by convolution network (FCN) and fusion by fully connected network (FFC) were developed; they differ in terms of the level of fusion of features derived from convolutional neural networks. The diagnostic models were trained using 382 and 293 images in the training and test data sets, respectively. The diagnostic ability of this method was compared with conventional parameters of the thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell complex. Results: FCN achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.987 (95% confidence interval, CI: 0.968-0.996) and an accuracy of 95.22%. In contrast, FFC achieved an AUC of 0.987 (95% CI, 0.971-0.998) and an accuracy of 95.90%. Both FCN and FFC outperformed the conventional method (P<0.001). In detecting early glaucoma, both FCN and FFC achieved significantly higher AUC and accuracy than the conventional approach (P<0.001). In addition, the classification performance of the DL-based fusion methods in identifying the 5 stages of glaucoma is presented via a confusion matrix. Conclusion: DL protocol based on wide-field OCT images outperformed the conventional method in terms of both AUC and accuracy. Therefore, DL-based diagnostic methods using wide-field OCT images are promising in diagnosing glaucoma in clinical practice.
