Retinal Photograph-based Deep Learning System for Detection of Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy.

Abstract

The diagnosis of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) usually requires a comprehensive examination, including clinical symptoms, radiological examinations, and blood tests. Therefore, cost-effective and noninvasive methods for the detection of TAO are needed. This study aimed to establish a deep learning-based system to detect TAO based on retinal photographs.
