Optical coherence tomography-based short-term effect prediction of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatment in neovascular age-related macular degeneration using sensitive structure guided network

To predict short-term anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment responder/non-responder for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. A total of 4944 OCT scans from 206 patients with nAMD were involved to develop and evaluate a responder/non-responder prediction method for the short-term effect of anti-VEGF therapy. A deep learning architecture named...
