Novel medical imaging technologies for processing epithelium and endothelium layers in corneal confocal images. Developing automated segmentation and quantification algorithms for processing sub-basal epithelium nerves and endothelial cells for early diagnosis of diabetic neuropathy in corneal confocal microscope images

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common types of diabetes that can affect the cornea. An accurate analysis of the corneal epithelium nerve structures and the corneal endothelial cell can assist early diagnosis of this disease and other corneal diseases, which can lead to visua...
