摘要
We propose a method using Gabor filters and phase portraits to locate automatically the optic disc (OD) in fundus images of the retina. Based on the property that the OD appears as the focal point of convergence of the blood vessels of the retina, the method includes detection of the blood vessels using Gabor filters, and the detection of peaks in the node map via phase portrait analysis. Additional conditions are applied based upon the intensity characteristics of fundus images and the OD. Forty images from the DRIVE database were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The OD was successfully detected in all of the 40 images.
