Abstract

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high resolution and non-invasive imaging modality that has become one of the most prevalent techniques for ophthalmic diagnostic. However, manual segmentation is often a time-consuming and subjective process. In this work, we present a new method for retinal layer segmentation in retinal optical coherence tomography images, which uses a deep convolutional feature to train a structured random forest classifier. The experimental results show that our method achieves good results with the mean distance error of 1.45 pixels whereas that of the state-of-the-art was 1.68 pixels, and achieve a F-score of 0.86 which is also better than 0.83 that is obtained by the state-of-the-art method.
