Project leader: José Ignacio Orlando, PhD (CONICET - PLADEMA/UNICEN)
Team: Tomás Castilla, Lautaro Gramuglia, Leandro Roccamora.
Our clinical partners: Hospital El Cruce (Florencio Varela, PBA).
Our research in ophthalmology is focused on:
- Segmentation and identification of retinal lesions in fundus photographs using deep learning techniques.
- Computer-assisted diagnosis of retinal diseases using convolutional neural networks.
- Automated identification of novel biomarkers associated to diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration.
- Computer-assisted treatment planning of visual diseases using fundus images and optical coherence tomography.
- Automated ICL sizing from anterior segment parameters.
We are also creating retinar, an AI based telemedicine platform for detecting diabetic retinopathy in communities with limited access to ophthalmologists.
