SCREEN-DR – Image Analysis and Machine Learning Platform for Innovation in Diabetic Retinopathy Screening
Funding entity:FCT (CMU-Portugal)
Period: 2016-2019
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness in the industrialized world that can be avoided with early treatment, demanding an earlier diagnosis in a stage where the treatment is still possible and effective. DR evolves silently without any visual symptoms, during the early stages of the disease.
Under this context, the […]
