description | AIM: To explore the application value of deep learning technology in automatic meibomian glands segmentation. METHODS:Infrared meibomian gland images were collected and 193 of them were picked out for establishing the database. The images were manually labeled by three clinicians. UNet++ network and automatic data expansion strategy were introduced to construct the automatic meibomian glands segmentation model. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed segmentation model were analyzed by precision, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and intersection over union.RESULTS: Taking manual labeling as the gold standard, the presented method segment the glands effectively and steadily with accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of 94.31%, 82.15% and 96.13% respectively. On the average, only 0.11s was taken for glands segmentation of single image.CONCLUSIONS: In this paper, deep learning technology is introduced to realize automatic segmentation of meibomian glands, achieving high accuracy, good stability and efficiency. It would be quite useful for calculation of gland morphological parameters, the clinical diagnosis and screening of related diseases, improving the diagnostic efficiency. |
