An AI system can identify patients who are being under-treated or over-treated for sight-threatening macular disease. Validated at two UK eye centres, the AI could help transform NHS monitoring.

#URochesterResearch by @schalleklab found that when photoreceptor cells in the retina are damaged, the brain’s immune cells respond, and neutrophils are not recruited to help despite passing through nearby blood vessels

How might AI help us to detect dementia through retinal scans? 👀
We spoke to Professor Pearse Keane (@ucleye.bsky.social) about pioneering studies in the emerging field of #oculomics.

Reads: “For more than 100 years, doctors have known that the eyes can be used as a window to the rest of the body. Now, thanks to the power of AI and big data, we can find information hidden within retinal images and use this information to pick up early signs of neurodegenerative diseases.”
