Code base for preprocessing, segmentation and classification retinal images, and the diagnosis of "plus disease" in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Created by the Quantitative Tumor Imaging Lab at Martinos.
The software has been tested on Windows, MacOS and Linux. We recommend using the Anaconda distribution of Python 2.7: https://www.continuum.io/downloads. Once installed, the steps for installing qtim_ROP are as follows:
git clone https://github.com/QTIM-Lab/qtim_ROP.git
cd qtim_ROP
git submodule update --init --recursive
pip install .If you wish to use a GPU, the process for configuring Theano can be quite involved depending on the OS. The software will use the CPU if no GPU is available.
The command line utility deeprop can be used to perform various tasks on
retinal images, including vessel segmentation and classification of plus disease.
To set which model(s) to use for segmentation and/or classification:
deeprop configure -s <path-to-unet> -c <path-to-classifier>This will create and update config.yaml in the user's home directory:
classifier_directory: <path-to-unet>
unet_directory: <path-to-classifier>To classify a retinal image for plus disease:
deeprop classify_plus -i <image-or-folder> -o <output-folder>If the output folder does not exist it will be created automatically. Subfolders will be created for the segmented and preprocessed image data. The classification results will be printed to the terminal and output to a timestamped CSV file.
To segment the vessels in a set of retinal images:
deeprop segment_vessels -i <directory-of-images> -o <output-directory> -u <path-to-unet>
