Data for: Retinal layer segmentation in rodent OCT images: Local intensity profiles & fully convolutional neural networks
Description
Database of rodent OCTs composed of two batches of images. Animal experiment permission was granted by the Danish Animal Experimentation Council (license number: 2017-15-0201-01213). Rat OCT images were taken with the Micron IV equipment (Phoenix Research Labs, Pleasanton, USA). All rats were anesthetized previously to image acquisition. A set of 22 Sprague-Dawley rats were used. The first batch is composed of 129 OCT images and the second one of 115 images (image size: 1024x1024 pixels; resolution: 0.9775 um/pixel). The most significant retinal layer boundaries that were visibly distinguishable on these images were segmented: ILM (Internal Limiting Membrane), IPL-INL (Inner Plexiform Layer - Inner Nuclear Layer), INL-OPL (Inner Nuclear Layer - Outer Plexiform Layer), OPL-ONL (Outer Plexiform Layer - Outer Nuclear Layer), IS-OS (Inner Segment - Outer Segment), RPE (Retinal Pigment Epithelium). The database contains the original rodent oct images obtained from circular scans, expert-reviewed segmentation (ground truth) and several automatic segmentation results for comparison purposes. This database must be loaded with MATLAB. For more information, see Sandra Morales, Adrián Colomer, José M.
