Abstract

The present disclosure describes a system and method to classify optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. The present system can classify OCT images without first segmenting the retina tissue. The system can generate one or more profiles from vertical transects through the OCT images. The system can identify image statistics based on the one or more profiles. The system's classifier can then classify the OCT images based on the identified image statistics.
