For this purpose, two retinal regions were defined and extracted: the inner retina and the outer retina. Then, a learning process was used to analyze a comprehensive and heterogeneous subset of relevant patterns in the OCT scans. Finally, two complementary post-processing stages were applied to improve the obtained performance and the overall efficiency of the presented tool. The presented tool achieved satisfactory performance, which demonstrates the suitability of the adopted solution.engCopyright © IOP Publishing Ltd 2023Optical coherence tomographyDiabetic macular edemaComputerized tool for the automatic segmentation of DRT edemas using OCT scansbook partembargoed access10.1088/978-0-7503-2052-8ch1
